He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.

A wise son heareth his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
