Proverbs 13:4

מִתְאַוֶּ֣ה וָאַ֣יִן נַפְשׁ֣וֹ עָצֵ֑ל וְנֶ֥פֶשׁ חָ֝רֻצִ֗ים תְּדֻשָּֽׁן׃
King James Version (KJV)

The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

Modern English

The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.

Hebrew

מִתְאַוֶּ֣ה וָאַ֣יִן נַפְשׁ֣וֹ עָצֵ֑ל וְנֶ֥פֶשׁ חָ֝רֻצִ֗ים תְּדֻשָּֽׁן׃
