Proverbs 12:25 Context
23A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fooles proclaimeth foolishnesse. 24The hand of the diligent shall beare rule: but the slouthfull shall bee vnder tribute. 25Heauinesse in the heart of man maketh it stoope: but a good word maketh it glad. 26The righteous is more excellent then his neighbour: but the way of the wicked seduceth them. 27The slouthfull man rosteth not that which he tooke in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious.
