Proverbs 19:23

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

²² The desire of a man is loving devotion; better to be poor than a liar.

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.

²⁵ Strike a mocker, and the simple will beware; rebuke the discerning man, and he will gain knowledge.
