Proverbs 24:30-34
30
I went past the field of a sluggard, past the vineyard of someone who has no sense;
31
thorns had come up everywhere, the ground was covered with weeds, and the stone wall was in ruins.
32
I applied my heart to what I observed and learned a lesson from what I saw:
33
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—
34
and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.

Proverbs 24:13-16
13
Eat honey, my son, for it is good; honey from the comb is sweet to your taste.
14
Know also that wisdom is like honey for you: If you find it, there is a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off.
15
Do not lurk like a thief near the house of the righteous, do not plunder their dwelling place;
16
for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.
