The Psalms 34:9-10

They seek a petty reward, and sometimes fight shamefully in law courts for a single piece of money.
They are not afraid to work day and night for a trifle or an empty promise.
But, for an unchanging good, for a reward beyond estimate, for the greatest honor and for glory everlasting, it must be said to their shame that men begrudge even the least fatigue.
Be ashamed, then, lazy and complaining servant, that they should be found more eager for perdition than you are for life, that they rejoice more in vanity than you in truth.
Sometimes indeed their expectations fail them, but My promise never deceives, nor does it send away empty-handed him who trusts in Me.
What I have promised I will give. What I have said I will fulfill, if only a man remain faithful in My love to the end.
