Proverbs 19:24

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

The slothful hideth his hand under his armpit, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth.

See the chapter Copy

The way of the slothful is as a hedge of thorns; the way of the just is without offence.

Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep, and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.

The deceitful man shall not find gain: but the substance of a just man shall be precious gold.

Who saith to them: One of the twelve, who dippeth with me his hand in the dish.

But he answering, said: He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, he shall betray me.

And I will break all the horns of sinners: but the horns of the just shall be exalted.

Desires kill the slothful: for his hands have refused to work at all.
