Proverbs 21:6
4 Haughty eyes and a proud heart— the guides of the wicked—are sin.
5 The plans of the diligent bring plenty, as surely as haste leads to poverty.
Making a fortune by a lying tongue is a vanishing mist, a deadly pursuit.
7 The violence of the wicked will sweep them away because they refuse to do what is just.
8 The way of a guilty man is crooked, but the conduct of the innocent is upright.
