Proverbs 21:5
“The plans of the diligent bring plenty, as surely as haste leads to poverty.”
In context
3To do righteousness and justice is more desirable to the LORD than sacrifice.
4Haughty eyes and a proud heart— the guides of the wicked—are sin.
5The plans of the diligent bring plenty, as surely as haste leads to poverty.
6Making a fortune by a lying tongue is a vanishing mist, a deadly pursuit.
7The violence of the wicked will sweep them away because they refuse to do what is just.
