Proverbs 12:27

Whoever is slothful will not roast his game,

but the diligent man will get precious wealth.

The lazy do not roast any game,

but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.

A lazy hunter doesn’t roast his game,

but to a diligent person, his wealth is precious.

Lazy people don’t even cook the game they catch,

but the diligent make use of everything they find.

The lazy will not roast his game,

but diligence is the precious wealth of a man.

The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting:

But the substance of a diligent man is precious.
