No laziness for Summer 2010

Proverbs 30:24-26

²⁴There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise:

²⁵The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;

Proverbs 20:4

⁴ A sluggard does not plow in season;
so at harvest time he looks but finds nothing.

Proverbs 26:14
As a door turns on its hinges, so a sluggard turns on his bed.

Proverbs 6

⁶ Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!

⁷ It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,

⁸ yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.

⁹ How long will you lie there, you sluggard?
When will you get up from your sleep?

¹⁰ A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest-

¹¹ and poverty will come on you like a bandit
and scarcity like an armed man.
Ecclesiastes 11:6
Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let not your hands be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well.

Proverbs 26:13

¹³ The sluggard says, "There is a lion in the road,
a fierce lion roaming the streets!"

2 Thessalonians 3:11
We hear that some among you are idle. They are not busy; they are busybodies.
