Proverbs 10:26-28

Amplified Bible

²⁶ 
Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes,
So is the lazy one to those who send him to work.
²⁷ 
The [reverent] fear of the Lord [worshiping, obeying, serving, and trusting Him with awe-filled respect] prolongs one’s life,
But the years of the wicked will be shortened.
²⁸ 
The hope of the righteous [those of honorable character and integrity] is joy,
But the expectation of the wicked [those who oppose God and ignore His wisdom] comes to nothing.
