The Ways of Life and Death
14 The wise woman builds her house,
But the foolish pulls it down with her hands.
Proverbs 24:30-34
New King James Version
30 I went by the field of the lazy man,
And by the vineyard of the man devoid of understanding;
31 And there it was, (A)all overgrown with thorns;
Its surface was covered with nettles;
Its stone wall was broken down.
32 When I saw it, I considered it well;
I looked on it and received instruction:
33 (B)A little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to rest;
34 (C)So shall your poverty come like [a]a prowler,
And your need like [b]an armed man.

10 Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent (F)to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble;
