Go to the ant
[Under development: 8 June 2005 ]
Taken literally, Proverbs chapter 6, verses 6 through 11 is little more than
an ancient expression of what in
· With what ruses do you avoid what needs to be done?
· How lazy are you?
· How much do you procrastinate?
Proverbs 6: 6-11
Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways and be wise!
She has no commander, no governor or ruler,
yet she stores her provisions in summer
and lays in her supplies at harvest.
How long will you lie abed, you sluggard?
When will you rouse yourself from your sleep?
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands in rest,
and poverty will come on you like a robber, and want like an ruffian.
