Proverbs 13:4-6

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁴ The slacker craves, yet has nothing,
but the diligent is fully satisfied.^(A)

⁵ The righteous hate lying,
but the wicked act disgustingly and disgracefully.

⁶ Righteousness guards people of integrity,^[a]
but wickedness undermines the sinner.^(B)
