Proverbs 26:13-16
21st Century King James Version
13 The slothful man saith, “There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets!”
14 As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.
15 The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.
16 The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render an answer.

Proverbs 26:13-16
American Standard Version
13 The sluggard saith, There is a lion in the way;
A lion is in the streets.
14 As the door turneth upon its hinges,
So doth the sluggard upon his bed.
15 The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish;
It wearieth him to bring it again to his mouth.
16 The sluggard is wiser in [a]his own conceit
Than seven men that can [b]render a reason.
