Proverbs 6:10-12

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁰ Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down and sleep—

¹¹ So will your poverty come like a robber or one who travels [with slowly but surely approaching steps] and your want like an armed man [making you helpless].^(A)

¹² A worthless person, a wicked man, is he who goes about with a perverse (contrary, wayward) mouth.
