Proverbs 26:13–14

The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road!

There is a lion in the streets!”

As a door turns on its hinges,

so does a sluggard on his bed.

A sluggard says, “There’s a lion in the road,

a fierce lion roaming the streets!”

As a door turns on its hinges,

so a sluggard turns on his bed.

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 lazy person claims, “There’s a lion on the road!

Yes, I’m sure there’s a lion out there!”

As a door swings back and forth on its hinges,

so the lazy person turns over in bed.

A lazy person says “A lion is in the road!

A lion among the streets!”

The door turns on its hinge,

and a lazy person on his bed.

The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way;

A lion is in the streets.

As the door turneth upon his hinges,

So doth the slothful upon his bed.
