13 The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the street, a lion in the middle of the square!”

14 The door turns on its hinges and sluggards, on their beds.

15 The sluggard buries a hand in the dish, too weary to lift it to the mouth.

16 In their own eyes sluggards are wiser than seven who answer with good judgment.
