Proverbs 10:26-28

The Message

²⁶ A lazy employee will give you nothing but trouble;
    it’s vinegar in the mouth, smoke in the eyes.

²⁷ The Fear-of-God expands your life;
    a wicked life is a puny life.

²⁸ The aspirations of good people end in celebration;
    the ambitions of bad people crash.
