Bible Comments

The diligent, who carefully and industriously prosecutes what he hath wisely contrived and resolved. That is hasty; who manageth his affairs rashly, without due consideration. Only to want; is likely to bring himself to poverty.

Proverbs 21:5

5 The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.
