Proverbs 24:33

Hebrew Names version (HNV)

a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep;

See the chapter Copy

One who is slack in his work is brother to him who is a master of destruction.

Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep. The idle soul shall suffer hunger.

Don't love sleep, lest you come to poverty. Open your eyes, and you shall be satisfied with bread.

Then I saw, and considered well. I saw, and received instruction:

so shall your poverty come as a robber, and your want as an armed man.

As the door turns on its hinges, so does the sluggard on his bed.

The fool folds his hands together and ruins himself.

Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep, for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.

Therefore he says, *Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Messiah will shine on you.*
