“ But his Lord answered and said to him,‘ You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed.

I went by the field of the lazy man, And by the vineyard of the man devoid of understanding;And there it was, all overgrown with thorns; Its surface was covered with nettles; Its stone wall was broken down.When I saw it, I considered it well; I looked on it and received instruction:A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to rest;So shall your poverty come like a prowler, And your need like an armed man.

The way of the lazy man is like a hedge of thorns, But the way of the upright is a highway.

Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise,Which, having no captain, Overseer or ruler,Provides her supplies in the summer, And gathers her food in the harvest.How long will you slumber, O sluggard? When will you rise from your sleep?A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep—So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler, And your need like an armed man.
