Proverbs 26:14

Modern King James Version

As the door turns upon its hinges, so does the lazy man turn upon his bed.

See the chapter Copy

The hand of the hard worker shall bear rule, but the lazy shall be under service.

The lazy one does not start after his game, but the wealth of a hard worker is precious.

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down;

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

that you be not slothful, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
