Proverbs 10:5

American King James Version (1999)

He that gathers in summer is a wise son: but he that sleeps in harvest is a son that causes shame.

See the chapter Copy

He becomes poor that deals with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent makes rich.

Blessings are on the head of the just: but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that makes ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.

A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causes shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brothers.

He that wastes his father, and chases away his mother, is a son that causes shame, and brings reproach.

The hay appears, and the tender grass shows itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.

The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

Provides her meat in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest.
