Ecclesiastes 4:5

The fool folds his hands and eats his own flesh.

They slice meat on the right, but are still hungry, and they devour on the left, but are not satisfied; each devours the flesh of his own arm,

Why should I take my flesh in my teeth and put my life in my hand?

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,

A man who is kind benefits himself, but a cruel man hurts himself.

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

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

The sluggard does not plow in the autumn; he will seek at harvest and have nothing.

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,
