Proverbs 12:24-26

International Children’s Bible

²⁴ Hard workers will become leaders.
    But those who are lazy will be slaves.

²⁵ Worry makes a person feel as if he is carrying a heavy load.
    But a kind word cheers up a person.

²⁶ A good person takes advice from his friends.
    But an evil person is easily led to do wrong.
