As a door turns on its hinges, so a sluggard turns on his bed.
Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in forced labor.
The lazy do not roast any game, but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—
Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise!
We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.
