'Works' in the Bible

The Lord created me as the beginning of his works, before his deeds of long ago.

The one who is lazy becomes poor, but the one who works diligently becomes wealthy.

The one who works his field will have plenty of food, but whoever chases daydreams lacks wisdom.

Commit your works to the Lord, and your plans will be established.

The Lord works everything for its own ends -- even the wicked for the day of disaster.

A laborer's appetite works on his behalf, for his hunger urges him to work.

A bribe works like a charm for the one who offers it; in whatever he does he succeeds.

A lying tongue hates those crushed by it, and a flattering mouth works ruin.

The one who works his land will be satisfied with food, but whoever chases daydreams will have his fill of poverty.

Give her credit for what she has accomplished, and let her works praise her in the city gates.
