Proverbs 19:15

Authorized (King James) Version

¹⁵Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep;
and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.

²⁴^(A)A lazy man buries his hand in the ^[a]bowl,
And will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

²⁴A slothful man hideth his hand in his bosom,
and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
