Proverbs Scripture Reading - Proverbs 26:13-16

Proverbs 26:13-16 Holman Christian Standard Bible

The slacker says, “There’s a lion in the road—

a lion in the public square!”

A door turns on its hinges,

and a slacker, on his bed.

The slacker buries his hand in the bowl;

he is too weary to bring it to his mouth.

In his own eyes, a slacker is wiser

than seven men who can answer sensibly.
