Proverbs 26:12-16

Legacy Standard Bible

¹² Do you see a man ^(A)wise in his own eyes?
^(B)There is more hope for a fool than for him.
¹³ The ^(C)sluggard says, “There is a fierce lion in the road!
A lion is ^[a]among the streets!”
¹⁴ As the door turns on its hinges,
So does the ^(D)sluggard on his bed.
¹⁵ The ^(E)sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
He is too weary to return it to his mouth.
¹⁶ The sluggard is ^(F)wiser in his own eyes
Than seven men who can respond with a discreet answer.
