Proverbs 21:25-27
English Standard Version

25 The desire of (A)the sluggard kills him,
    for his hands refuse to labor.
26 All day long he craves and craves,
    but the righteous (B)gives and does not hold back.
27 (C)The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination;
    how much more (D)when he brings it with evil intent.
