4Giue no sleepe to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
5Deliuer thy selfe as a doe from the hande of the hunter, and as a birde from the hande of the fouler.
6Goe to the pismire, O sluggarde: beholde her waies, and be wise.
7For shee hauing no guide, gouernour, nor ruler,
8Prepareth her meat in the sommer, and gathereth her foode in haruest.
9Howe long wilt thou sleepe, O sluggarde? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleepe?
10Yet a litle sleepe, a litle slumber, a litle folding of the hands to sleepe.
11Therefore thy pouertie commeth as one that trauaileth by the way, and thy necessitie like an armed man.
12The vnthriftie man and the wicked man walketh with a froward mouth.
13He maketh a signe with his eyes: he signifieth with his feete: he instructeth with his fingers.
14Lewde things are in his heart: he imagineth euill at all times, and raiseth vp contentions.
15Therefore shall his destruction come speedily: hee shall be destroyed suddenly without recouerie.
