The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish; It wearieth him to bring it again to his mouth.
The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; It grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.
The slothful and self-indulgent buries his hand in his bosom; it distresses and wearies him to bring it again to his mouth. [Prov. 19:24.]
Lazy people bury their hand into the bowl, too tired to return it to their mouth.
The lazy one conceals his hand under his arms, and it is a labor for him to move it to his mouth.
The slothful hideth his hand under his armpit, and it grieveth him to turn it to his mouth.
