Proverbs 6:6 - 6:11

« Prov 5 | Prov 6 | Prov 7 »

6

Go to the ant, O sluggard,

Observe her ways and be wise,

7

Which, having no chief,

Officer or ruler,

8

Prepares her food in the summer

And gathers her provision in the harvest.

9

How long will you lie down, O sluggard?

When will you arise from your sleep?

10

“A little sleep, a little slumber,

A little folding of the hands to rest”—

11

Your poverty will come in like a vagabond

And your want like an armed man.
