Proverbs 10:1-5 ▼

1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish son grieves his mother.

2 Nothing good comes from ill-gotten wealth, but righteousness delivers from death.

3 The LORD won't cause the righteous to hunger, but he will reject what the wicked crave.

4 Lazy hands bring poverty, but hard-working hands lead to wealth.

5 Whoever harvests during summer acts wisely, but the son who sleeps during harvest is disgraceful.
