Proverbs 12:27

King James 3 - The Literal Traslation

The one of laziness does not start after his prey, but the wealth of a diligent man is precious.

See the chapter Copy

A little to the righteous one is better than the abundance of many wicked ones.

He who works with a lazy palm will be lacking, but the hand of the diligent one makes to become rich.

The righteous one searches out his friend, but the way of the wicked ones leads them astray.

A sluggish one’s soul is craving, but having nothing, but the soul of the diligent ones shall be made fat.

Better is a little with the fear of Jehovah than great treasure and tumult with it.

Better is a little with righteousness than great increase without justice.

and put a knife to your throat if you are an owner of a soul.

As the door turns on its hinge, so the lazy one on his bed.

The lazy one buries his hand in the dish; he is weary to bring it back to his mouth.
