13. The slothful hath said, `A lion [is] in the way, A lion [is] in the broad places.'
14. The door turneth round on its hinge, And the slothful on his bed.
15. The slothful hath hid his hand in a dish, He is weary of bringing it back to his mouth.
16. Wiser [is] the slothful in his own eyes, Than seven [men] returning a reason.
17. Laying hold on the ears of a dog, [Is] a passer-by making himself wrath for strife not his own.
