Lazy people are soon poor;
hard workers get rich.
A wise youth harvests in the summer,
but one who sleeps during harvest is a disgrace.
The godly are showered with blessings;
the words of the wicked conceal violent intentions.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
A slack hand causes poverty,
but the hand of the diligent enriches.
He who gathers in the summer is a child who is prudent;
he who sleeps at the harvest is a child who brings shame.
Blessings belong to the head of the righteous,
but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

KJV 1900King James Version
He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand:
But the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
He that gathereth in summer is a wise son:
But he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.
Blessings are upon the head of the just:
But violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.
