American Standard Version
" Go to the ant, thou sluggard; Consider her ways, and be wise: "
— Proverbs 6:6, American Standard Version
“Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:”
“Go to the ant, you sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise;”
“Go to the ant, you sluggard; observe its ways and be wise!”
“Go to the ant, O sluggard, and consider her ways, and learn wisdom:”
“Go to the ant, you hater of work; give thought to her ways and be wise:”
“Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:”
Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, Seeing thou art come into the hand of thy neighbor: Go, humble thyself, and importune thy neighbor;
Give not sleep to thine eyes, Nor slumber to thine eyelids;
Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, And as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
Go to the ant, thou sluggard; Consider her ways, and be wise:
Which having no chief, Overseer, or ruler,
Provideth her bread 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?
