Proverbs 19:24

A Conservative Version

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

See the chapter Copy

The way of the sluggard is as a hedge of thorns, but the path of the upright is made a highway.

Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep, and the idle soul shall suffer hunger.

The slothful man roasts not that which he took in hunting, but the substance of a diligent man [is] precious.

And having answered, he said to them, It is one of the twelve dipping with me in the dish.

And having answered, he said, He who dipped his hand with me in the dish, this man will betray me.

Why do thou draw back thy hand, even thy right hand? Remove [it] from the midst of thy bosom.

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