Proverbs 13:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³ He who guards his mouth makes his life secure,
    but one who talks excessively ensures his own downfall.^[a]
4 The idler^[b] craves for food and remains unsatisfied,
    but the appetite of the diligent is fully sated.
⁵ The righteous man hates words that are deceitful,
    but the evildoer slanders and defames.
