Proverbs 10:26-28

Modern English Version

²⁶ As vinegar to the teeth and as smoke to the eyes,
    so is the sluggard to those who send him.

²⁷ The fear of the Lord prolongs days,
    but the years of the wicked will be shortened.

²⁸ The hope of the righteous will be gladness,
    but the expectation of the wicked will perish.
