¹³ If you love sleep, you will end in poverty.
    Keep your eyes open, and there will be plenty to eat!

¹⁵ Lazy people sleep soundly,
    but idleness leaves them hungry.

¹¹ A hard worker has plenty of food,
    but a person who chases fantasies has no sense.

⁴ Lazy people are soon poor;
    hard workers get rich.

⁴ Lazy people want much but get little,
    but those who work hard will prosper.

⁹ But you, lazybones, how long will you sleep?
    When will you wake up?
¹⁰ A little extra sleep, a little more slumber,
    a little folding of the hands to rest—
¹¹ then poverty will pounce on you like a bandit;
    scarcity will attack you like an armed robber.

“Awake, O sleeper,
    rise up from the dead,
    and Christ will give you light.”
