13 A slacker says, “There’s a lion on the road! A lion is in the streets!”
14 As a door turns on its hinges so a slacker turns on his bed.
15 The slacker plunges his hand in the dish— he is too tired to bring it back to his mouth.
16 A slacker is wiser in his own eyes than seven people who answer sensibly.
17 Like one who takes a dog by the ears is a passer-by who meddles in a quarrel not his own.
18 Like a madman shooting firebrands and deadly arrows
19 so is one who deceives his friend, and says, “I was only joking.”
