Proverbs 21:25
King James VersionSource notes
“The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.”
Context
22A wise scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
23Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
24Proud haughty scorner his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
25The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
26He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
27The sacrifice of the wicked abomination: how much more, he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
28A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.
