Proverbs 26:13-15 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

13. A person who doesn't want to work says, "There's a lion in the road! There's an angry lion wandering in the streets!"

14. A person who doesn't want to work turns over in bed just like a door that swings back and forth.

15. A person who doesn't want to work leaves his hand in the dish. He acts as if he is too tired to bring it back up to his mouth.
