Löydetty 8 Tulokset: Diligent

• A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich. (Proverbs 10, 4)

• The hand of the diligent will rule, while the slothful will be put to forced labor. (Proverbs 12, 24)

• A slothful man will not catch his prey, but the diligent man will get precious wealth. (Proverbs 12, 27)

• The soul of the sluggard craves, and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied. (Proverbs 13, 4)

• He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him. (Proverbs 13, 24)

• The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but every one who is hasty comes only to want. (Proverbs 21, 5)

• You are urged therefore to read with good will and attention, and to be indulgent in cases where, despite out diligent labor in translating, we may seem to have rendered some phrases imperfectly. For what was originally expressed in Hebrew does not have exactly the same sense when translated into another language. Not only this work, but even the law itself, the prophecies, and the rest of the books differ not a little as originally expressed. (Ecclesiasticus 1, 15)

• So too is every craftsman and master workman who labors by night as well as by day; those who cut the signets of seals, each is diligent in making a great variety; he sets his heart on painting a lifelike image, and he is careful to finish his work. (Ecclesiasticus 39, 27)
