Proverbs 6:9-11
New American Standard Bible

9 How long will you lie down, you [a]lazy one?
When will you arise from your sleep?
10 “(A)A little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to [b]rest,”
11 (B)Then your poverty will come in like a [c]drifter,
And your need like [d]an armed man.
