Proverbs 12:23-27

²³A prudent man concealeth knowledge; But the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.

²⁴The hand of the diligent shall bear rule; But the slothful shall be put under taskwork.

²⁵Heaviness in the heart of a man maketh it stoop; But a good word maketh it glad.

²⁶The righteous is a guide to his neighbor; But the way of the wicked causeth them to err.

²⁷The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting; But the precious substance of men is to the diligent.
