Proverbs 20:3-5

Expanded Bible

³ Foolish people are always fighting,
but ·avoiding quarrels [backing away from an accusation] will bring you ·honor [glory; praise].

⁴ Lazy farmers don’t plow ·when they should [^Lin the winter];
they ·expect [look for] a harvest, but there is none.

⁵ People’s ·thoughts [advice; purpose] can be like a deep ·well [^Lwaters],
but someone with understanding can ·find the wisdom there [draw it out].
