Slothfulness

Proverbs 24:30-34 (New King James Version)

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

WORDS

Proverbs 23:9 (New King James Version)

9 Do not speak in the hearing of a fool,
For he will despise the wisdom of your words.
