13 The sluggard says, "There is a lion in the road! A fierce lion roams the streets!"
14 As the door turns on its hinges, So does the sluggard on his bed.
15 The sluggard buries his hand in the dish. He is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.
16 The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes Than seven men who answer with discretion.
17 Like one who seizes a dog`s ears Is one who passes by and meddles in a quarrel not his own.
18 Like a madman who shoots firebrands, arrows, and death,
19 Is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, "Am I not joking?"
