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.
