6. Go to the ant, you sluggard;observe its ways and be wise!
7. It has no commander, overseer, or ruler,
8. yet it prepares its food in the summer;it gathers at the harvest what it will eat.
9. How long, you sluggard, will you lie there?When will you rise from your sleep?
10. A little sleep, a little slumber,a little folding of the hands to relax,
11. and your poverty will come like a robber,and your need like an armed man.
12. A worthless and wicked personwalks around saying perverse things;
13. he winks with his eyes,signals with his feet,and points with his fingers;
14. he plots evil with perverse thoughts in his heart,he spreads contention at all times.
15. Therefore, his disaster will come suddenly;in an instant he will be broken, and there will be no remedy.
