Proverbs 19:22

20 Listen to counsel and accept discipline, that you may be wise the rest of your days.

21 Many plans are in a man’s heart, but the purpose of the LORD will prevail.

The desire of a man is loving devotion; better to be poor than a liar.

23 The fear of the LORD leads to life, that one may rest content, without visitation from harm.

24 The slacker buries his hand in the dish; he will not even bring it back to his mouth.
