New King James Version

Proverbs 24:30-34 New King James Version (NKJV)

30. I went by the field of the lazy man,And by the vineyard of the man devoid of understanding;

31. And there it was, all overgrown with thorns;Its surface was covered with nettles;Its stone wall was broken down.

32. When I saw it, I considered it well;I looked on it and received instruction:

33. A little sleep, a little slumber,A little folding of the hands to rest;

34. So shall your poverty come like a prowler,And your need like an armed man.
