The sluggard will not plow during the planting season, so at harvest time he looks for the crop but has nothing.

But if it produces thorns and thistles, it is useless and about to be cursed; its fate is to be burned.

Yes, the LORD has this to say to the people of Judah and Jerusalem:“ Like a farmer breaking up hard unplowed ground, you must break your rebellious will and make a new beginning; just as a farmer must clear away thorns lest the seed is wasted, you must get rid of the sin that is ruining your lives.

Now I will inform you what I am about to do to my vineyard: I will remove its hedge and turn it into pasture, I will break its wall and allow animals to graze there.

But to Adam he said,“ Because you obeyed your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you,‘ You must not eat from it,’ cursed is the ground thanks to you; in painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.It will produce thorns and thistles for you, but you will eat the grain of the field.By the sweat of your brow you will eat food until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you will return.”

Because of laziness the roof caves in, and because of idle hands the house leaks.

The sluggard says,“ There is a lion outside! I will be killed in the middle of the streets!”
