Proverbs 10:4-10 New Living Translation (NLT)

4. Lazy people are soon poor;hard workers get rich.

5. A wise youth harvests in the summer,but one who sleeps during harvest is a disgrace.

6. The godly are showered with blessings;the words of the wicked conceal violent intentions.

7. We have happy memories of the godly,but the name of a wicked person rots away.

8. The wise are glad to be instructed,but babbling fools fall flat on their faces.

9. People with integrity walk safely,but those who follow crooked paths will be exposed.

10. People who wink at wrong cause trouble,but a bold reproof promotes peace.
