The desire of the sluggard kills him, for his hands refuse to labor.All day long he craves and craves, but the righteous gives and does not hold back.

A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.

Whoever is slothful will not roast his game, but the diligent man will get precious wealth.

Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep, and an idle person will suffer hunger.

The sluggard says,“ There is a lion outside! I shall be killed in the streets!”

The man Jeroboam was very able, and when Solomon saw that the young man was industrious he gave him charge over all the forced labor of the house of Joseph.

He saw that a resting place was good, and that the land was pleasant, so he bowed his shoulder to bear, and became a servant at forced labor.

A servant who deals wisely will rule over a son who acts shamefully and will share the inheritance as one of the brothers.

their descendants who were left after them in the land, whom the people of Israel were unable to devote to destruction— these Solomon drafted to be slaves, and so they are to this day.

The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.

Do you see a man skillful in his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men.

I passed by the field of a sluggard, by the vineyard of a man lacking sense,and behold, it was all overgrown with thorns; the ground was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.Then I saw and considered it; I looked and received instruction.A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.

The sluggard says,“ There is a lion in the road! There is a lion in the streets!”As a door turns on its hinges, so does a sluggard on his bed.The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; it wears him out to bring it back to his mouth.The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who can answer sensibly.

And when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned, they sent and called him to the assembly and made him king over all Israel. There was none that followed the house of David but the tribe of Judah only.
