Go to the ant, you sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise;

The soul of the lazy one craves and gets nothing, But the soul of the diligent is made prosperous.

The lazy one does not plow after the autumn, So he begs during the harvest and has nothing.

“ But his master answered and said to him,‘ You worthless, lazy slave! Did you know that I reap where I did not sow, and gather where I did not scatter seed?

Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, So is the lazy one to those who send him.

The ants are not a strong people, But they prepare their food in the summer;

He also who is lax in his work Is a brother to him who destroys.

How long will you lie down, you lazy one? When will you arise from your sleep?

so that you will not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and endurance inherit the promises.

not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord;

A lazy one says,“ There is a lion on the road! A lion is in the public square!”As the door turns on its hinges, So does a lazy one on his bed.A lazy one buries his hand in the dish; He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again.A lazy one is wiser in his own eyes Than seven people who can give a discreet answer.

I passed by the field of a lazy one, And by the vineyard of a person lacking sense,And behold, it was completely overgrown with weeds; Its surface was covered with weeds, And its stone wall was broken down.When I saw, I reflected upon it; I looked, and received instruction.“ A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to rest,”Then your poverty will come like a drifter, And your need like an armed man.

“ But just ask the animals, and have them teach you; And the birds of the sky, and have them tell you.Or speak to the earth, and have it teach you; And have the fish of the sea tell you.

The desire of the lazy one puts him to death, For his hands refuse to work;

The lazy one says,“ There is a lion outside; I will be killed in the streets!”

The lazy one buries his hand in the dish, But will not even bring it back to his mouth.

Laziness casts one into a deep sleep, And a lazy person will suffer hunger.

The way of the lazy one is like a hedge of thorns, But the path of the upright is a highway.

Indeed, it is useless to spread the baited net In the sight of any bird;

Look at the birds of the sky, that they do not sow, nor reap, nor gather crops into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more important than they?

An ox knows its owner, And a donkey its master’s manger, But Israel does not know, My people do not understand.”
