As the door turns upon its hinges, so does the slothful upon his bed.
As the door turneth upon his hinges, So doth the slothful upon his bed.
As the door turns on its hinges, so does the lazy man [move not from his place] upon his bed.
As the door turneth upon its hinges, So doth the sluggard upon his bed.
As a door turns on its hinge, so do lazy people in their beds.
Just as a door turns upon its hinges, so also does the lazy one turn upon his bed.
As the door turneth upon its hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.
The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be put to forced labor.
The slothful man roasts not that which he took in hunting: but the possessions of a diligent man are precious.
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
That you be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
