The thoughts of the diligent[ tend] only to plenteousness; but of every one[ that is] hasty only to want.

The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold;[ therefore] shall he beg in harvest, and[ have] nothing.

The soul of the sluggard desireth, and[ hath] nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

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

The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes,[ and] thou shalt be satisfied with bread.

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

Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,Provideth her meat in the summer,[ and] gathereth her food in the harvest.How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?[ Yet] a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.

There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and[ there is] that withholdeth more than is meet, but[ it tendeth] to poverty.

And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns,[ and] nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down.Then I saw,[ and] considered[ it] well: I looked upon[ it, and] received instruction.[ Yet] a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:So shall thy poverty come[ as] one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man.

Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.For if these things be in you, and abound, they make[ you that ye shall] neither[ be] barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through.
