The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.

So shall your poverty come like a robber; and your want like an armed man.

The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.

He becomes poor who has a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent makes rich.

For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags.

Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.

Love not sleep, lest you come to poverty; open your eyes, and you shall be satisfied with bread.

Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

The fool folds his hands together, and eats his own flesh.
