30 I passed by the field of the sluggard
And by the vineyard of the man (A)lacking a heart of wisdom,
31 And behold, it was completely [a](B)overgrown with thistles;
[b](C)Nettles have covered its surface,
And its stone (D)wall has been torn down.
32 And I beheld, I set my heart upon it;
I saw, I received discipline.
33 “(E)A little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to rest,”
34 Then your poverty will come as [c]a robber
And your want like [d]an armed man.

30 I went past the field of a sluggard,(A)
past the vineyard of someone who has no sense;
31 thorns had come up everywhere,
the ground was covered with weeds,
and the stone wall was in ruins.
32 I applied my heart to what I observed
and learned a lesson from what I saw:
33 A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest(B)—
34 and poverty will come on you like a thief
and scarcity like an armed man.(C)
