Proverbs 20:12-14
Expanded Bible
12 The Lord has made both these things:
ears to hear and eyes to see.
13 ·If you love to sleep, you [L Do not love to sleep, or you] will be poor.
·If you stay awake [L Keep your eyes open, and], you will have plenty of food.
14 Buyers say, “·This is bad. It’s no good [L Bad, bad].”
Then they go away and brag about what they bought.
Proverbs 20:12-14
New International Version
12 Ears that hear and eyes that see—
the Lord has made them both.(A)
13 Do not love sleep or you will grow poor;(B)
stay awake and you will have food to spare.
14 “It’s no good, it’s no good!” says the buyer—
then goes off and boasts about the purchase.
