Proverbs 10:1-5 ▼

1 Solomon’s proverbs: A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish son, heartache to his mother.

2 Ill-gotten gains do not profit anyone, but righteousness rescues from death.

3 The LORD will not let the righteous go hungry, but he denies the wicked what they crave.

4 Idle hands make one poor, but diligent hands bring riches.

5 The son who gathers during summer is prudent; the son who sleeps during harvest is disgraceful.
