By slothfulness the roof sinketh in; and through idleness of the hands the house leaketh.

因人懒惰，房顶塌下；因人手懒，房屋滴漏。

因人懒惰，房顶塌下；因人手懒，房屋滴漏。

因人懒惰，房顶塌下；因人手懒，房屋滴漏。

屋顶因人懒惰而坍塌，房间因人游手好闲而漏雨。

房顶塌下是因为懒惰，房屋滴漏是因为懒得动手。

因人懒惰，房顶塌落；因手闲散，房屋漏雨。

因人懶惰，房頂塌下；因人手懶，房屋滴漏。

因人懶惰，房頂塌下；因人手懶，房屋滴漏。

因人懶惰，房頂塌下；因人手懶，房屋滴漏。

屋頂因人懶惰而坍塌，房間因人遊手好閒而漏雨。

房頂塌下是因為懶惰，房屋滴漏是因為懶得動手。

由於懶惰，房頂就塌下；由於手懶，房屋就滴漏。

因人懶惰，房頂塌落；因手閒散，房屋漏雨。

人惰則榱陷、手懈則屋漏、

人惰而不修其室、則棟撓屋漏。

緣怠而梁墮、緣懈而屋漏、

Through laziness, the rafters sag; because of idle hands, the house leaks.

When a person won’t work, the roof falls down. Because of hands that aren’t busy, the house leaks.

Through sloth the roof sinks in, and through indolence the house leaks.

Laziness leads to a sagging roof; idleness leads to a leaky house.

Because of laziness the roof caves in, and because of negligent hands the house leaks.

Through extreme laziness the rafters sag, and through idleness the house leaks.

Because of laziness the building decays, And through idleness of hands the house leaks.

Because of laziness the roof caves in, and because of negligent hands the house leaks.

By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through.

Because of laziness the roof caves in, and because of idle hands the house leaks.

By slothfulness the roof sinks in; and through idleness of the hands the house leaks.

Every wise woman buildeth her house; But the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands.

I went by the field of the sluggard, And by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, The face thereof was covered with nettles, And the stone wall thereof was broken down.Then I beheld, and considered well; I saw, and received instruction:Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep;So shall thy poverty come as a robber, And thy want as an armed man.

The sluggard will not plow by reason of the winter; Therefore he shall beg in harvest, and have nothing.

Yea, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply virtue; and in your virtue knowledge;and in your knowledge self- control; and in your self- control patience; and in your patience godliness;and in your godliness brotherly kindness; and in your brotherly kindness love.For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful unto the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.For he that lacketh these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.Wherefore, brethren, give the more diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never stumble:

And we desire that each one of you may show the same diligence unto the fulness of hope even to the end:

The desire of the sluggard killeth him; For his hands refuse to labor.

For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty; And drowsiness will clothe a man with rags.

The hand of the diligent shall bear rule; But the slothful shall be put under taskwork.
