Proverbs 21:25

Compare all

23 ^aWhoever guards his mouth and tongue
Keeps his soul from troubles.

24 A proud and haughty man— “Scoffer” is his name;
He acts with arrogant pride.

25 The ^adesire of the lazy man kills him,
For his hands refuse to labor.

26 He covets greedily all day long,
But the righteous ^agives and does not spare.

27 ^aThe sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination;
How much more when he brings it with wicked intent!
