7 Ela, [mesmo] não tendo chefe, nem fiscal, nem dominador,

8 Prepara seu alimento no verão, na ceifa ajunta seu mantimento.

9 Ó preguiçoso, até quando estarás deitado? Quando te levantarás de teu sono?

10 Um pouco de sono, um pouco de cochilo; um pouco de descanso com as mãos cruzadas;

11 Assim a pobreza virá sobre ti como um assaltante; a necessidade [chegará] a ti como um homem armado.
