Proverbs 26:13-16

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹³ The ^(A)sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road!
A lion is ^[a]in the open square!”
¹⁴ As the door turns on its hinges,
So does the ^(B)sluggard on his bed.
¹⁵ The ^(C)sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again.
¹⁶ The sluggard is ^(D)wiser in his own eyes
Than seven men who can ^[b]give a discreet answer.
