Proverbs 10:25-27

New Catholic Bible

²⁵ When the storm ends, the wicked man is no more,
    but the righteous man stands firm forever.
²⁶ Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes,
    so is the sluggard^[a] to those he serves.
²⁷ The fear of the Lord prolongs life,
    but the years of the wicked are cut short.
