10 An archer who wounds anyone, Is he who hires a fool or any passer-by.
11 As a dog returns to his own vomit, So a fool repeats his folly.
12 Have you seen a man wise in his own eyes? There is more expectancy for a fool than for him.
13 The lazy one says, “There is a lion in the way! A fierce lion is in the streets!”
14 As a door turns on its hinges, So does the lazy one turn on his bed.
15 The lazy one buries his hand in a dish; It tires him to bring it back to his mouth.
16 The lazy one is wiser in his own eyes Than seven rendering advice.
