Proverbs 19:14-16
The Voice
14 Houses and riches may be inherited from parents,
but a sensible wife is a gift from the Eternal.
15 Laziness lulls people into a deep sleep;
a slacker will have nothing to eat.
16 Whoever keeps God’s commands lengthens his life,
but a careless lifestyle ends in death.
Proverbs 19:14-16
New International Version
15 Laziness brings on deep sleep,
and the shiftless go hungry.(C)
16 Whoever keeps commandments keeps their life,
but whoever shows contempt for their ways will die.(D)
