6 Go to the ant, you lazy one, and consider her ways, and so learn wisdom. 7 For though she has no ruler, nor instructor, nor leader, 8 she provides meals for herself in the summer, and she gathers at the harvest what she may eat. 9 How long will you slumber, you lazy one? When will you rise up from your sleep? 10 You will sleep a little, you will slumber a little, you will fold your hands a little to sleep, 11 and then destitution will meet with you, like a traveler, and poverty, like an armed man. Yet truly, if you would be diligent, then your harvest will arrive like a fountain, and destitution will flee far from you. Proverbs 6:6-11, Catholic Public Domain Version. Public domain.
