Proverbs 26:17 CPDV

¹⁵  The lazy one conceals his hand under his arms, and it is a labor for him to move it to his mouth.

¹⁶  The lazy one seems wiser to himself than seven men speaking judgments.

¹⁷  Just like one who takes hold of a dog by the ears, so also is he who crosses impatiently and meddles in the quarrels of another.

¹⁸  Just as he is guilty who let loose the arrows and the lances unto death,

¹⁹  so also is the man who harms his friend by deceitfulness. And when he has been apprehended, he says, 'I did it jokingly.'
