Proverbs 19:12-15
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 19

12A king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion, But his favor is like dew on the grass. 13A foolish son is destruction to his father, And the quarrels of a wife are a constant dripping. 14House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers, But a prudent wife is from the Lord. 15Laziness casts one into a deep sleep, And a lazy person will suffer hunger.
King James Version

15Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
