Therefore Jehovah will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and bulrush, in one day.

The elder and honorable, he is the head; and the prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail.

You shall eat the labor of your hands, you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you.

In all labor there is profit, but the talk of the lips tends only to poverty.

Though the fig tree shall not blossom, and fruit is not on the vines; the work of the olive fails, and the fields yield no food; the flock is cut off from the fold, and no herd is in the stalls,

And I called for a drought in the land, and on the mountains, and on the grain, and on the new wine, and on the oil, and on that which the ground brings forth, and on man, and on livestock, and on all the labor of your hands.

that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you,

that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and that you may have need of nothing.
