Consider the ant . . .

Pro 6:6 - 11

Go to the ant, . . . . Consider her ways, and be wise; which having no chief, overseer, or ruler, provides her bread in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest.

How long will you sleep, . . . ? When will you arise out of your sleep?

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
so your poverty will come as a robber, and your scarcity as an armed man.
