Proverbs 21:25

The desire of the sluggard kills him, for his hands refuse to labor.

The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing, but the desire of the diligent shall be fully satisfied.

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

The hands of the diligent ones shall rule, but laziness ends in slave labor.

The slothful man doesn't roast his game, but the possessions of diligent men are prized.

The way of the sluggard is like a thorn patch, but the path of the upright is a highway.

The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; he will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

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

The sluggard says, "There is a lion outside. I will be killed in the streets."

I went by the field of the sluggard, by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;

The sluggard says, "There is a lion in the road. A fierce lion roams the streets."

The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who answer with discretion.

"But his lord answered him, 'You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I did not sow, and gather where I did not scatter.
