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.
