King James 2000

Proverbs 24:29-34 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

29. Say not, I will do so to him as he has done to me: I will render to the man according to his work.

30. I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;

31. And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and weeds had covered its face, and its stone wall was broken down.

32. Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction.

33. Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

34. So shall your poverty come like a robber; and your want like an armed man.
