Being lazy is displeasing in the sight of God.

A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich. (Proverbs 10:4, English Standard Version)

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

For even when we were with you, we would give you this command: If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat. (2 Thessalonians 3:10, English Standard Version)

But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. (1 Timothy 5:8, English Standard Version)
