A person who doesn’t want to work says,“ There’s a lion in the road! There’s an angry lion wandering in the streets!”A person who doesn’t want to work turns over in bed just like a door that swings back and forth.A person who doesn’t want to work leaves his hand in his plate. He acts as if he is too tired to bring his hand back up to his mouth.A person who doesn’t want to work is wiser in his own eyes than seven people who give careful answers.
I went past the field of someone who didn’t want to work. I went past the vineyard of someone who didn’t have any sense.Thorns had grown up everywhere. The ground was covered with weeds. The stone wall had fallen down.I applied my heart to what I observed. I learned a lesson from what I saw.You might sleep a little or take a little nap. You might even fold your hands and rest.Then you would be poor, as if someone had robbed you. You would have little, as if someone had stolen from you.
You lazy people, how long will you lie there? When will you get up from your sleep?You might sleep a little or take a little nap. You might even fold your hands and rest.
