Proverbs 19:22-24

Young's Literal Translation

²²The desirableness of a man [is] his kindness, And better [is] the poor than a liar.

²³The fear of Jehovah [is] to life, And satisfied he remaineth -- he is not charged with evil.

²⁴The slothful hath hidden his hand in a dish, Even unto his mouth he bringeth it not back.

Proverbs 19:22-24

New International Version

²²What a person desires is unfailing love^[a];
better to be poor than a liar.

²³The fear of the Lord leads to life;
then one rests content, untouched by trouble.^(A)

²⁴A sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
he will not even bring it back to his mouth!^(B)
