The sluggardsays,"There is a lionoutside;I will be killedin the streets!"
The wayof the lazyis as a hedgeof thorns,But the pathof the uprightis a highway.
Lazinesscastsinto a deepsleep,And an idlemanwill sufferhunger.
The eyesof the LORDpreserveknowledge,But He overthrowsthe wordsof the treacherousman.
"I have takenoffmy dress,Howcan I putit on [again]? I have washedmy feet,Howcan I dirtythem [again]?
