Proverbs 21:25

The desire of the lazy man kills him, for his hands have refused to work.

The soul of the sluggard desires and has nothing; but the soul of the hard worker shall be made fat.

Go to the ant, sluggard; consider her ways and be wise;

The hand of the hard worker shall bear rule, but the lazy shall be under service.

The lazy one does not start after his game, but the wealth of a hard worker is precious.

The way of the lazy one is like a hedge of thorns, but the way of the righteous is made plain.

A lazy one puts his hand in a dish, and he will not return it to his mouth.

The lazy one will not plow; after the autumn he shall beg in harvest and have nothing.

The lazy one says, There is a lion outside; I shall be killed in the streets.

I went by the field of the lazy man, and by the vineyard of the man without understanding;

The lazy one says, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.

The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who can give a reason.

His lord answered and said to him, Evil and slothful servant! You knew that I reaped where I did not sow, and gathered where I did not scatter,
