Proverbs 12:25-27
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

25 Anxiety weighs down the human heart,
    but a good word cheers it up.(A)
26 The righteous are released from misfortune,[a]
    but the way of the wicked leads them astray.
27 The lazy do not roast[b] their game,
    but the diligent obtain precious wealth.[c]
