George Leo Haydock, on Prov 21:5

“The thoughts of the industrious always bring forth abundance: but every sluggard is always in want.”

“Sluggard. Hebrew, “hasty man,” as the slothful is ironically styled. He would see his desires accomplished without labouring; and will never stick to work. This levity is most injurious to his advancement.”
