Proverbs 10:5–7

5 He who gathers crops in summer is a prudent son,

but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.

6 Blessings crown the head of the righteous,

but violence overwhelms the mouth of the wicked.

7 The name of the righteous is used in blessings,

but the name of the wicked will rot.

5 He that gathereth in summer is a wise son:

But he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.

6 Blessings are upon the head of the just:

But violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

7 The memory of the just is blessed:

But the name of the wicked shall rot.

5 A wise youth harvests in the summer,

but one who sleeps during harvest is a disgrace.

6 The godly are showered with blessings;

the words of the wicked conceal violent intentions.

7 We have happy memories of the godly,

but the name of a wicked person rots away.

5 He who gathers in summer is a wise son;

He who sleeps in harvest is a son who causes shame.

6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous,

But violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

7 The memory of the righteous is blessed,

But the name of the wicked will rot.

5 Those who gather crops on time are wise,

but those who sleep through the harvest are a disgrace.

6 Good people will have rich blessings,

but the wicked will be overwhelmed by violence.

7 Good people will be remembered as a blessing,

but evil people will soon be forgotten.

5 He that gathereth in summer is a wise son;

But he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.

6 Blessings are upon the head of the righteous;

But violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

7 The memory of the righteous is blessed;

But the name of the wicked shall rot.

5 He that gathereth in summer is a wise son; he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.

6 Blessings are upon the head of a righteous man; but the mouth of the wicked covereth violence.

7 The memory of the righteous man shall be blessed; but the name of the wicked shall rot.

5 Whoever gathers in the summer is a wise son. 

Whoever sleeps at harvest time brings shame. 

6 Blessings cover the head of a righteous person, 

but violence covers the mouths of wicked people. 

7 The name of a righteous person remains blessed, 

but the names of wicked people will rot away. 

5 The son who gathers during summer is prudent;

the son who sleeps during harvest is disgraceful.

6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous,

but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

7 The remembrance of the righteous is a blessing,

but the name of the wicked will rot.

5 A child who gathers in summer is prudent,

but a child who sleeps in harvest brings shame.

6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous,

but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

7 The memory of the righteous is a blessing,

but the name of the wicked will rot.

5 He who gathers in the summer is a child who is prudent;

he who sleeps at the harvest is a child who brings shame.

6 Blessings belong to the head of the righteous,

but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

7 The memory of righteousness is like a blessing,

but the name of the wicked will rot.

5 A child who gathers crops in summer is wise.

But a child who sleeps at harvest time brings shame.

6 Blessings are like crowns on the heads of those who do right.

But the trouble caused by what sinners say destroys them.

7 To remember those who do right is a blessing.

But the names of those who do wrong will rot.

5 He who gathers in summer is a son who acts wisely,

But he who sleeps in harvest is a son who acts shamefully.

6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous,

But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

7 The memory of the righteous is blessed,

But the name of the wicked will rot.
