Proverbs 24:31-34 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

31. And behold it was all filled with nettles, and thorns had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall was broken down.

32. Which when I had seen, I laid it up in my heart, and by the example I received instruction.

33. Thou wilt sleep a little, said I, thou wilt slumber a little, thou wilt fold thy hands a little to rest:

34. And poverty shall come to thee as a runner, and beggary as an armed man.
