Proverbs 12:26-28
Good News Translation

26 The righteous person is a guide to his friend, but the path of the wicked leads them astray.

27 If you are lazy, you will never get what you are after, but if you work hard, you will get a fortune.[a]

28 Righteousness is the road to life; wickedness[b] is the road to death.
