Exhortation to Watch
34 “Be on guard so that your hearts are not weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of this life and that day does not catch you unexpectedly,(A) 35 like a trap. For it will come upon all who live on the face of the whole earth. 36 Be alert at all times, praying that you may have the strength to escape all these things that will take place and to stand before the Son of Man.”(B)

Proverbs 6:4-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
4 Give your eyes no sleep
and your eyelids no slumber;(A)
5 save yourself like a gazelle from the hunter,[a]
like a bird from the hand of the fowler.(B)
6 Go to the ant, you lazybones;
consider its ways and be wise.(C)
7 Without having any chief
or officer or ruler,
8 it prepares its food in summer
and gathers its sustenance in harvest.(D)
9 How long will you lie there, O lazybones?
When will you rise from your sleep?(E)
10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest,
11 and poverty will come upon you like a robber,
and want, like an armed warrior.(F)
