⁹ How long will you lie down, lazy?
    When will you rise up from your sleep?

²⁶ Like vinegar to the tooth and like smoke to the eyes,
    thus is the lazy to one who employs^[a] him.

¹⁹ The way of the lazy is like a hedge of thorns,^[a]
    but the path of the upright is a highway.

²⁴ A lazy person buries his hand in the dish,
    and even to his mouth he will not bring it back.

⁴ The lazy person will not plow in season;
    he will expect at the harvest, but there will be nothing.
