NASB
"The sluggard says, "There is a lion in the road! A lion is in the open square!""
— Proverbs 26:13, NASB
Like an archer who wounds everyone, So is he who hires a fool or who hires those who pass by.
Like a dog that returns to its vomit Is a fool who repeats his folly.
Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
The sluggard says, "There is a lion in the road! A lion is in the open square!"
As the door turns on its hinges, So does the sluggard on his bed.
The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again.
The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes Than seven men who can give a discreet answer.
