8He prepares food for himself in the summer, And lays by abundant store in harvest. a Or go to the bee, And learn how diligent she is, And how earnestly she is engaged in her work; b Whose labors kings and private men use for health, And she is desired and respected by all: c Though weak in body, She is advanced by honoring wisdom.
9How long wilt thou lie, O sluggard? And when wilt thou awake out of sleep?
— Proverbs 6:10 —
11Then poverty comes upon thee as an evil traveler, And want as a swift courier: a But if thou be diligent, thy harvest shall arrive as a fountain, And poverty shall flee away as a bad courier.
12A foolish man and a transgressor Goes in ways that are not good.
