13 The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road! A lion is in the open square!”

14 As the door turns on its hinges, So does the sluggard on his bed.

15 The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again.

16 The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes Than seven men who can give a discreet answer.
