The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.
The way of the slothful man is as a hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain.
Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
The slothful man saith, There is a lion without, I shall be slain in the streets.
Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
and I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
