Proverbs 22:13-15

Contemporary English Version

¹³ Don't be so lazy that you say,
“If I go to work,
    a lion will eat me!”
¹⁴ The words of a bad woman
    are like a deep pit;
if you make the Lord angry,
    you will fall right in.
¹⁵ All children are foolish,
but firm correction
    will make them change.
