Proverbs 22:13-15

Living Bible

¹³ The lazy man is full of excuses. “I can’t go to work!” he says. “If I go outside, I might meet a lion in the street and be killed!”

¹⁴ A prostitute is a dangerous trap; those cursed of God are caught in it.

¹⁵ A youngster’s heart is filled with rebellion, but punishment will drive it out of him.
