Sluggards do not plow in season; so at harvest time they look but find nothing.

The slacker does not plow during planting season; at harvest time he looks, and there is nothing.

Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep, and an idle person will suffer hunger.

A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.

The sluggard buries his hand in the dish and will not even bring it back to his mouth.

The sluggard says,“ There is a lion in the road! There is a lion in the streets!”As a door turns on its hinges, so does a sluggard on his bed.The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; it wears him out to bring it back to his mouth.The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who can answer sensibly.

For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge,and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness,and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love.For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he is blind, having forgotten that he was cleansed from his former sins.Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent to confirm your calling and election, for if you practice these qualities you will never fall.For in this way there will be richly provided for you an entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them,but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps.As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept.But at midnight there was a cry,‘ Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps.And the foolish said to the wise,‘ Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’But the wise answered, saying,‘ Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.

He also who had received the one talent came forward, saying,‘ Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you scattered no seed,so I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here, you have what is yours.’But his master answered him,‘ You wicked and slothful servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I scattered no seed?Then you ought to have invested my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received what was my own with interest.So take the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents.

and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.

The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.
