Proverbs 22:11-13

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹¹ Those who love a pure heart and are gracious in speech
    will have the king as a friend.
¹² The eyes of the Lord keep watch over knowledge,
    but he overthrows the words of the faithless.
¹³ The lazy person says, ‘There is a lion outside!
    I shall be killed in the streets!’
