New Testament

Proverbs 21:24-28 New King James Version (NKJV)

24. A proud and haughty man— “Scoffer” is his name;He acts with arrogant pride.

25. The desire of the lazy man kills him,For his hands refuse to labor.

26. He covets greedily all day long,But the righteous gives and does not spare.

27. The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination;How much more when he brings it with wicked intent!

28. A false witness shall perish,But the man who hears him will speak endlessly.
