⁵ The plans of hard-working people earn a profit,
but those who ·act too quickly [hurry] become poor.

²⁵ Lazy people’s ·desire for sleep [^Llongings] will kill them,
because ·they refuse to work [^Ltheir hands refuse to do anything; 2 Thess. 3:10].

²⁶ All day long they wish for more,
but ·good [righteous] people give without holding back.
