Proverbs 10:26-28
New Catholic Bible
26 Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes,
so is the sluggard[a] to those he serves.
27 The fear of the Lord prolongs life,
but the years of the wicked are cut short.
28 The hope of the righteous brings them joy,
but the expectations of the wicked are frustrated.
