Proverbs 21:24
22 A wise man scales the city of the mighty and pulls down the stronghold in which they trust.
23 He who guards his mouth and tongue keeps his soul from distress.
Mocker is the name of the proud and arrogant man— of him who acts with excessive pride.
25 The craving of the slacker kills him because his hands refuse to work.
26 All day long he covets more, but the righteous give without restraint.
