Proverbs 10:4-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴ The slothful hand hath wrought poverty: but the hand of the industrious getteth riches. He that trusteth to lies feedeth the winds: and the same runneth after birds that fly away.

⁵ He that gathered in the harvest is a wise son: but he that snorteth in the summer, is the son of confusion.

⁶ The blessing of the Lord is upon the head of the just: but iniquity covereth the mouth of the wicked.
