Proverbs 24:30-34

30I passed by the field of a sluggard, by the vineyard of a man lacking sense,

31and behold, it was all overgrown with thorns; the ground was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.

32Then I saw and considered it; I looked and received instruction.

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

34and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.
