Proverbs 24:30-34 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

30. I went by the field of a sluggard, and by the vineyard of a man void of understanding;

31. and lo, it was all grown over with thistles, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and its stone wall was broken down.

32. Then I looked, I took it to heart; I saw, I received instruction:

33. --A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest!

34. So shall thy poverty come as a roving plunderer, and thy penury as an armed man.
