Proverbs 12:26-28
New American Standard Bible 1995
26 The righteous is a guide to his neighbor,
But the way of the wicked leads them astray.
27 A [a]lazy man does not [b]roast his prey,
But the (A)precious possession of a man is diligence.
28 (B)In the way of righteousness is life,
And in its pathway there is no death.
