Proverbs 10:3-5
American Standard Version

3 Jehovah will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish;
But he thrusteth away the desire of the wicked.
4 He becometh poor that worketh with a slack hand;
But the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
5 He that gathereth in summer is [a]a wise son;
But he that sleepeth in harvest is a son [b]that causeth shame.
