Proverbs
Chapters 21:25-31
New International Version Anglicized
25The craving of a sluggard will be the death of him,because his hands refuse to work.
26All day long he craves for more,but the righteous give without sparing.
27The sacrifice of the wicked is detestable –how much more so when brought with evil intent!
28A false witness will perish,but a careful listener will testify successfully.
29The wicked put up a bold front,but the upright give thought to their ways.
30There is no wisdom, no insight, no planthat can succeed against the Lord.
31The horse is made ready for the day of battle,but victory rests with the Lord.
