Foolish people fold their hands and don’t work. And that destroys them.

The fool folds his hands and eats his own flesh.

“ Fools fold their idle hands, leading them to ruin.”

The fool folds his arms and consumes his own flesh.

The fool folds his hands and consumes his own flesh.

The fool folds his hands And consumes his own flesh.

The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.

The fool folds his arms and consumes his own flesh.

The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.

The fool folds his hands and does no work, so he has nothing to eat but his own flesh.

The fool folds his hands together and ruins himself.

On the right they will devour, but still be hungry; on the left they will eat, but not be satisfied. Each will feed on the flesh of their own offspring:

Why do I put myself in jeopardy and take my life in my hands?

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.

The lazy do not roast any game, but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.

A sluggard’s appetite is never filled, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.

Sluggards do not plow in season; so at harvest time they look but find nothing.

Those who are kind benefit themselves, but the cruel bring ruin on themselves.
