Proverbs 10:26-28
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

26 Like vinegar to the teeth, and smoke to the eyes,
    so is the sluggard to those who send him.
27 The fear of the Lord prolongs life,
    but the years of the wicked will be short.
28 The hope of the righteous ends in gladness,
    but the expectation of the wicked comes to nought.
