Proverbs 19:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep, and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.

¹⁶ He that keepeth the commandment, keepeth his own soul: but he that neglecteth his own way, shall die.

¹⁷ He that hath mercy on the poor, lendeth to the Lord: and he will repay him.
