A sluggard’s appetite is never filled, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.

People who refuse to work want things and get nothing. But the desires of people who work hard are completely satisfied.

The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.

Lazy people want much but get little, but those who work hard will prosper.

The slacker craves, yet has nothing, but the diligent is fully satisfied.

The soul of the lazy one craves and gets nothing, But the soul of the diligent is made prosperous.

The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing; But the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.

The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing; But the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

The slacker craves, yet has nothing, but the diligent is fully satisfied.

The appetite of the sluggard craves but gets nothing, but the desire of the diligent will be abundantly satisfied.

The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing, but the desire of the diligent shall be fully satisfied.

He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain[ persons is] void of understanding.

He becometh poor that dealeth[ with] a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.

The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.

And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.For if these things be in you, and abound, they make[ you that ye shall] neither[ be] barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom,[ and] apply thine heart to understanding;Yea, if thou criest after knowledge,[ and] liftest up thy voice for understanding;If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as[ for] hid treasures;Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth[ cometh] knowledge and understanding.He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous:[ he is] a buckler to them that walk uprightly.He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity;[ yea], every good path.

The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.

He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.

And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:

Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

Blessed[ is] the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.

And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.

The slothful[ man] saith,[ There is] a lion in the way; a lion[ is] in the streets.

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;

Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth[ part] of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!
