Proverbs 19:24

American Standard Version 2015

The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish,\par\tab 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;\par\tab But the path of the upright is made a highway.

Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep;\par\tab And the idle soul shall suffer hunger.

The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting;\par\tab But the precious substance of men {\i is to} the diligent.

And he said unto them, {\cf6 {\i It is} one of the twelve, he that dippeth with me in the dish.

And he answered and said, {\cf6 He that dipped his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.

Why drawest thou back thy hand, even thy right hand?\par\tab {\i Pluck it} out of thy bosom {\i and} consume {\i them}.\par

The desire of the sluggard killeth him;\par\tab For his hands refuse to labor.
