Proverbs 19:1-3
Contemporary English Version

It's Wise To Be Patient

19 It's better to be poor
and live right
    than to be a stupid liar.
2 Willingness and stupidity
    don't go well together.
If you are too eager,
    you will miss the road.
3 We are ruined
by our own stupidity,
    though we blame the Lord.
