"Go to the ant, you lazybones..." | Proverbs 6

Proverbs 6: 6-11

NRSV

Go to the ant, you lazybones; consider its ways, and be wise.

Without having any chief or officer or ruler,

it prepares its food in summer, and gathers its sustenance in harvest.

How long will you lie there, O lazybones?

When will you rise from your sleep?

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 warrior.
