The Bible (God himself) tells us to be simple, but not too simple. Sometimes simplicity leads to laziness, but other times being simple is the wise choice to make.
Here are a few verses you can take a look at:
Proverbs 1:22
Proverbs 8:5
Proverbs 9:4
Proverbs 14:15
So pretty much, read the book of Proverbs, you'll find a million!
There is also a famous verse in Romans 16:19 that says; "..but I want you to be wise in what is good; and simple concerning evil."
I hope this helped a little.
Peace,

"...Let your 'yes' be 'yes' and your 'no' be 'no' anything outside of this is from the evil one".
By following this verse, you have guaranteed for yourself a very simple life, with no complications, no worries, no stress. If your 'yes' is always 'yes', and your 'no' is always 'no', you've got it made.
