Proverbs 15:19

Compare all

17 ^aBetter is a dinner of¹ herbs where love is,
Than a fatted calf with hatred.

18 ^aA wrathful man stirs up strife,
But he who is slow to anger allays contention.

19 ^aThe way of the lazy man is like a hedge of thorns,
But the way of the upright is a highway.

20 ^aA wise son makes a father glad,
But a foolish man despises his mother.

21 ^aFolly is joy to him who is destitute of¹ discernment,
^bBut a man of understanding walks uprightly.

Proverbs 15:19

We will not turn to this, but you can write down the scripture Proverbs 15:19. In this case he is compared with somebody who is upright. It indicates that the lazy person is fundamentally dishonest. He is deceiving himself. He is lying to himself that it really does not matter. Oh yes, it does.
