5  He who gathers ^pin summer is a prudent son,

but he who sleeps in harvest is a son who brings shame.

4  ^kThe sluggard does not plow in the autumn;

he will seek at harvest and have nothing.

30  ^qI passed by the field of a sluggard,

by the vineyard of a man lacking sense,

31  and behold, it was all overgrown with thorns;

the ground was covered with nettles,

and its stone wall was broken down.

32  Then I saw and considered it;

I looked and received instruction.

33  ^rA little sleep, a little slumber,

a little ^sfolding of the hands to rest,

34  and ^tpoverty will come upon you like a robber,

and want like an armed man.
