Proverbs 6:6-15 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

6. Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

7. Which having no chief, overseer, or ruler,

8. Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

9. How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?

10. Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

11. So shall thy poverty come as a robber, and thy want as an armed man.

12. A worthless person, a man of iniquity; he walketh with a froward mouth;

13. He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he maketh signs with his fingers;

14. Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth evil continually; he soweth discord.

15. Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; on a sudden shall he be broken and that without remedy.
