Proverbs 26:15-17
New King James Version
Proverbs 26:15-17
New King James Version
15 The (A)lazy man buries his hand in the [a]bowl;
It wearies him to bring it back to his mouth.
16 The lazy man is wiser in his own eyes
Than seven men who can answer sensibly.
17 He who passes by and meddles in a quarrel not his own
Is like one who takes a dog by the ears.
