NASB
"A worker's appetite works for him, For his hunger urges him on."
— Proverbs 16:26, NASB
“The appetite of the laboring man laboreth for him; For his mouth urgeth him thereto. ”
The heart of the wise instructs his mouth And adds persuasiveness to his lips.
Pleasant words are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.
There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.
A worker's appetite works for him, For his hunger urges him on.
A worthless man digs up evil, While his words are like scorching fire.
A perverse man spreads strife, And a slanderer separates intimate friends.
A man of violence entices his neighbor And leads him in a way that is not good.
