Proverbs 26:14

King James Version - American Edition

As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.

See the chapter Copy

The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.

The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious.

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

Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

that ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
