Good News Bible

Proverbs 24:30-34 Good News Bible (GNB)

30. I walked through the fields and vineyards of a lazy, stupid person.

31. They were full of thorn bushes and overgrown with weeds. The stone wall round them had fallen down.

32. I looked at this, thought about it, and learned a lesson from it:

33. have a nap and sleep if you want to. Fold your hands and rest awhile,

34. but while you are asleep, poverty will attack you like an armed robber.
