Proverbs 19:15
“Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.”
A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
House and riches are the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife is from the Lord.
Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth his ways shall die.
He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
