The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.
A just weight and balance are the LORD’s : all the weights of the bag are his work.
He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.
Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house.
Say not, I will do so to him as he hath done to me: I will render to the man according to his work.
