Proverbs 24:27
American Standard Version
27 Prepare thy work without,
And make it ready for thee in the field;
And afterwards build thy house.
Proverbs 24:30-34
American Standard Version
30 I went by the field of the sluggard,
And by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;
31 And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns,
The face thereof was covered with [a]nettles,
And the stone wall thereof was broken down.
32 Then I beheld, and considered well;
I saw, and received instruction:
33 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to sleep;
34 So shall thy poverty come as a robber,
And thy want as an armed man.

2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing;
But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.
Proverbs 25:13
American Standard Version
13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest,
So is a faithful messenger to them that send him;
For he refresheth the soul of his masters.
Proverbs 26:13-16
American Standard Version
13 The sluggard saith, There is a lion in the way;
A lion is in the streets.
14 As the door turneth upon its hinges,
So doth the sluggard upon his bed.
15 The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish;
It wearieth him to bring it again to his mouth.
16 The sluggard is wiser in [a]his own conceit
Than seven men that can [b]render a reason.

Proverbs 28:19
American Standard Version
19 He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread;
But he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough.
Proverbs 30:24-28
American Standard Version
24 There are four things which are little upon the earth,
But they are exceeding wise:
25 The ants are a people not strong,
Yet they provide their food in the summer;
26 The conies are but a feeble folk,
Yet make they their houses in the rocks;
27 The locusts have no king,
Yet go they forth all of them by bands;
28 The lizard [a]taketh hold with her hands,
Yet is she in kings’ palaces.
