4. Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids:
5. deliver thyself as a gazelle 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, sluggard, wilt thou lie down? When wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
10. A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest!
