Proverbs 12:12, 24-28

Proverbs 12:12 NCV

The wicked want what other evil people have stolen, but good people want to give what they have to others.

Proverbs 12:24-28 NCV

Hard workers will become leaders, but those who are lazy will be slaves. Worry is a heavy load, but a kind word cheers you up. Good people take advice from their friends, but an evil person is easily led to do wrong. The lazy catch no food to cook, but a hard worker will have great wealth. Doing what is right is the way to life, but there is another way that leads to death.
