Proverbs 10:2-4
Amplified Bible

2 
Treasures of wickedness and ill-gotten gains do not profit,
But righteousness and moral integrity in daily life rescues from death.
3 
The Lord will not allow the [a]righteous to hunger [God will meet all his needs],
But He will reject and cast away the craving of the wicked.(A)
4 
Poor is he who works with a negligent and idle hand,
But the hand of the diligent makes him rich.
