5. Escape like a gazelle from a hunter, like a bird from a fowler’s trap.
6. Go to the ant, you slacker! Observe its ways and become wise.
7. Without leader, administrator, or ruler,
8. it prepares its provisions in summer;it gathers its food during harvest.
9. How long will you stay in bed, you slacker?When will you get up from your sleep?
10. A little sleep, a little slumber,a little folding of the arms to rest,
11. and your poverty will come like a robber,your need, like a bandit.
