The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
The sacrifice of the wicked [is] abomination: how much more, [when] he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.
A wicked man hardeneth his face: but [as for] the upright, he directeth his way.
[There is] no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
The horse [is] prepared against the day of battle: but safety [is] of the LORD.
A [good] name [is] rather to be chosen than great riches, [and] loving favour rather than silver and gold.
The rich and poor meet together: the LORD [is] the maker of them all.
A prudent [man] foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.
