Proverbs 20:11-13
Amplified Bible
11
Even a boy is known and distinguished by his acts,
Whether his conduct is pure and right.
12
The hearing ear and the seeing eye,
The [omnipotent] Lord has made both of them.
13
Do not love [excessive] sleep, or you will become poor;
Open your eyes [so that you can do your work] and you will be satisfied with bread.
Proverbs 20:11-13
New International Version
11 Even small children are known by their actions,
so is their conduct really pure(A) and upright?
12 Ears that hear and eyes that see—
the Lord has made them both.(B)
13 Do not love sleep or you will grow poor;(C)
stay awake and you will have food to spare.
