Proverbs 10:24-26

Living Bible

²⁴ The wicked man’s fears will all come true and so will the good man’s hopes.

²⁵ Disaster strikes like a cyclone and the wicked are whirled away. But the good man has a strong anchor.

²⁶ A lazy fellow is a pain to his employers—like smoke in their eyes or vinegar that sets the teeth on edge.
