Proverbs 26:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ The slothful hideth his hand under his armpit, and it grieveth him to turn it to his mouth.

¹⁶ The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit, than seven men that speak sentences.

¹⁷ As he that taketh a dog by the ears, so is he that passeth by in anger, and meddleth with another man's quarrel.
