Proverbs 20:13


Proverbs 20:12 Proverbs 20:13 (KJV) Proverbs 20:14
The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.
Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, [and] thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
[It is] naught, [it is] naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
