The lazy and the hard worker















Parable of the Ant

Go to the ant, you lazy one! See her ways and be wise, which, having no commander, overseer or ruler, provides her supplies in the summer, gathers her food in the harvest. How long would you lie down, O lazy one? When do you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down; and your poverty shall come like a prowler, and your need as an armed man - Proverbs 6:6-11.













The verses above not only talk about those who are lazy to work or to have someone watch over you (boss) making sure you are doing what you supposed to be doing. This parable of the ant is also about a person’s faith (belief); we do not need someone like a pastor, parents or a teacher to make sure we follow Yahuah.

Be wise as the ant; build your relationship with Him now, without the traditions of man. The pastor or parent cannot give you salvation, this is something you must work out on your own.

Again, O lazy one, when will you come out of your lukewarm belief! A little sleep, a little playing around, a little doing this and doing that and when you wipe the sleep out of your eyes, the door to Yahuah's kingdom will be closed.

O, wake up those who are lukewarm, who only worship Yahuah when they are in need or when they feel like it!

Be like the ant and build up your crown of treasure now that you still have time because you never know when the door will close and then it is to late.













Proverbs of a Lazy + Hard worker

Poor is he who works with a lazy hand, but the hand of the hard worker makes rich. He who gathers in the summer is a wise son, he who sleeps in harvest is a son who causes shame - Proverbs 10:4-5.

As vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, so is the lazy one to those who send him - Proverbs 10:26.

The hand of the hard worker rules, but the lazy is put to compulsory labour - Proverbs 12:24.

The lazy one has no game to roast, but the hard worker prizes his possessions - Proverbs 12:27.













The being (soul) of the lazy one craves (desires), but has not; while the being of the hard workers is enriched (enhance) - Proverbs 13:4.

The way of a lazy one is like a hedge of thorns, but the way of the straight is a highway - Proverbs 15:19.

Also, he who is slack in his work is a brother of a master destroyer - Proverbs 18:9.

Laziness makes one fall into a deep sleep, and an idle being (soul) suffers hunger - Proverbs 19:15.












A lazy one buries his hand in a dish, and does not bring it back to his mouth - Proverbs 19:24.

The lazy one does not plough after the autumn; at harvest time he inquires - there is none! - Proverbs 20:4.


















The plans of the hard worker lead only to plenty, but all rash haste only to poverty - Proverbs 21:5.

The desire of the lazy man slays him, for his hands refused to work - Proverbs 21:25.

The lazy one says: "There is a lion outside!" "I am going to be murdered in the streets!" - Proverbs 22:13.

I passed by the field of the lazy, and by the vineyard of the man lacking heart; and see, it was all overgrown with thorns; .... - Proverbs. 24:30.

As a door turns on its hinges, so does the lazy one turn on his bed. The lazy one buries his hand in a dish; it tires him to bring it back to his mouth. The lazy one is wiser in his own eyes than seven rendering advise - Proverbs 26:14-16.

He who tills his land is satisfied with bread, but he who pursues vanities (pride) is filled with poverty - Proverbs 28:19.
