Proverbs 26:12-16

Do you see a person wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

A lazy one says, “There is a lion on the road! A lion is in the public square!”

As the door turns on its hinges, So does a lazy one on his bed.

A lazy one buries his hand in the dish; He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again.

A lazy one is wiser in his own eyes Than seven people who can give a discreet answer.
