6. Go to the ant, you lazy one! See her ways and be wise,
7. Which, having no commander, overseer or ruler,
8. Provides her supplies in the summer, Gathers her food in the harvest.
9. How long would you lie down, O lazy one? When do you arise from your sleep?
10. A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to lie down;
11. And your poverty shall come like a prowler, And your need as an armed man.
12. A man of Beliya‛al, a wicked man, Walks with a perverse mouth,
13. Winks with his eyes, shuffles his feet, Points with his fingers;
14. Perverseness is in his heart, Plotting evil at all times, He sends out strife.
15. Therefore his calamity comes suddenly; Instantly he is broken, And there is no healing.
16. These six matters יהוה hates, And seven are an abomination to Him:
17. A proud look, A lying tongue, And hands shedding innocent blood,
18. A heart devising wicked schemes, Feet quick to run to evil,
