So you will be as poor as if you had been robbed; you will have as little as if you had been held up.
The lazy will not get what they want, but those who work hard will.
Soon you will be as poor as if you had been robbed; you will have as little as if you had been held up.
Lazy farmers don’t plow when they should; they expect a harvest, but there is none.
A lazy person will end up poor, but a hard worker will become rich.
Those who drink and eat too much become poor. They sleep too much and end up wearing rags.
Lazy people sleep a lot, and idle people will go hungry.
If you love to sleep, you will be poor. If you stay awake, you will have plenty of food.
You sleep a little; you take a nap. You fold your hands and lie down to rest.
Some say it is foolish to fold your hands and do nothing, because you will starve to death.
