懒惰人因冬寒不肯耕种，到收割的时候，他必讨饭而无所得。

若长荆棘和蒺藜，必被废弃，近于咒诅，结局就是焚烧。

耶和华对犹大和耶路撒冷人如此说：“要开垦你们的荒地，不要撒种在荆棘中。

现在我告诉你们，我要向我葡萄园怎样行：我必撤去篱笆，使它被吞灭，拆毁墙垣，使它被践踏。

愿这地长蒺藜代替麦子，长恶草代替大麦。”约伯的话说完了。

因为好酒贪食的，必致贫穷；好睡觉的，必穿破烂衣服。

撒在荆棘里的，就是人听了道，后来有世上的思虑、钱财的迷惑把道挤住了，不能结实。

又对亚当说：“你既听从妻子的话，吃了我所吩咐你不可吃的那树上的果子，地必为你的缘故受咒诅；你必终身劳苦才能从地里得吃的。地必给你长出荆棘和蒺藜来；你也要吃田间的菜蔬。你必汗流满面才得糊口，直到你归了土，因为你是从土而出的。你本是尘土，仍要归于尘土。”

因人懒惰，房顶塌下；因人手懒，房屋滴漏。

懒惰人说：外头有狮子；我在街上就必被杀。
