Proverbs 19:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ You will receive houses and wealth from your parents.
    But a wise wife is given by the Lord.

¹⁵ Anyone who doesn’t want to work sleeps his life away.
    And a person who refuses to work goes hungry.

¹⁶ Those who keep commandments keep their lives.
    But those who don’t care how they live will die.
