30-34 I passed by the field of a lazy person,
by the vineyard of someone with no sense;
thorns had come up everywhere,
the ground was covered with weeds,
and the stone wall was in ruins.

and learned a lesson from what I saw:
A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest—
and poverty will come on you like a thief
and scarcity like an armed man.
