Mishle 12:25-28 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

25. Anxiety in the lev ish causeth depression, but a davar tov cheers it up.

26. The tzaddik prevaileth advantageously over his neighbor, but the derech resha'im leads them astray.

27. The remiyyah (deceitfully lazy man) roasteth not that which he took in hunting, but diligence is the precious possession of man.

28. In the orach tzedakah (way of righteousness) is chayyim, and in the derech netivot (pathway) thereof there is no mavet.
