3. Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, Seeing thou art come into the hand of thy neighbor: Go, humble thyself, and importune thy neighbor;
4. Give not sleep to thine eyes, Nor slumber to thine eyelids;
5. Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, And as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
6. Go to the ant, thou sluggard; Consider her ways, and be wise:
7. Which having no chief, Overseer, or ruler,
8. Provideth her bread in the summer, And gathereth her food in the harvest.
9. How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? When wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
