New International Version (NIV)

11Those who work their land will have abundant food,

but those who chase fantasies have no sense.

11One who works his land will have plenty of bread,

But one who pursues worthless things lacks sense.

11He who tills his land will have plenty of bread,

But he who follows worthless things lacks common sense and good judgment.

11The one who works his land will have plenty of food,

but whoever chases fantasies lacks judgment.

11He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread;

But he that followeth after vain persons is void of understanding.

11He that tilleth his lande, shalbe satisfied with bread: but he that followeth the idle, is destitute of vnderstanding.

11He who tills his land shall have plenty of bread,

but he who chases fantasies is void of understanding.

11Those who farm their land will have plenty of food.

But those who chase dreams have no sense.

11A farmer who works hard will have plenty of food to eat.

But anyone who works only on useless things is foolish.

11Whoever is tilling the ground is satisfied [with] bread, || And whoever is pursuing vanities is lacking heart,
