Proverbs 15:19-21
International Standard Version
19 The lifestyle of the lazy is like a thorny hedge,
but the path taken by the upright is an open highway.
20 A wise son makes a father glad,
but a foolish man despises his mother.
21 Stupidity is the delight of the senseless,
but an understanding man walks uprightly.
