6. Go to the ant, you lazy person;observe its ways and grow wise.
7. The ant has no commander, officer, or ruler.
8. Even so, it gets its food in summer;gathers its provisions at harvest.
9. How long, lazy person, will you lie down?When will you rise from your sleep?
10. A little sleep, a little slumber,a little folding of the arms to lie down—
11. and poverty will come on you like a prowler,destitution like a warrior.
12. Worthless people and guilty peoplego around with crooked talk.
13. They wink their eyes, gesture with their feet,and point with their fingers.
14. Their hearts are corrupt and determined to do evil;they create controversies all the time.
15. Therefore, sudden disaster will come upon them;they will be quickly broken beyond healing.
