5 Deliver thyself, as a gazelle out of the hand, and as a bird, out of the hand of the fowler.
6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard, observe her ways, and be wise;
7 Which, having no harvest, scribe, or ruler,
8 Prepareth, in the summer, her food, hath collected, in the harvest, her sustenance.
9 How long, O sluggard, wilt thou lie? how long ere thou rise from thy sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest:—
11 So shall come in, as a highwayman, thy poverty, and, thy want, as one armed with a shield.
