Proverbs 10:4-6
The Voice
4 A slack hand produces nothing but poverty,
but an industrious hand soon takes hold of riches.
5 A wise son stores up for the winter months while it is still summer,
but a shameful son lies around even during the harvest.
6 Blessings come to those who do what is right,
but words spoken by the wicked cover up violent schemes.
Proverbs 10:4-6
New International Version
5 He who gathers crops in summer is a prudent son,
but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.(C)
