God, help please.

Proverbs 6:6-11
6 Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!

7 It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,

8 yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.

9 How long will you lie there, you sluggard?
When will you get up from your sleep?

10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest-

11 and poverty will come on you like a bandit
and scarcity like an armed man. [a]


Proverbs 10:4
4 Lazy hands make a man poor,
but diligent hands bring wealth.


Proverbs 10:5
5 He who gathers crops in summer is a wise son,
but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.


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


Proverbs 12:24
24 Diligent hands will rule,
but laziness ends in slave labor.


Proverbs 12:27
27 The lazy man does not roast [a] his game,
but the diligent man prizes his possessions.


Proverbs 13:4
4 The sluggard craves and gets nothing,
but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.


Proverbs 15:19
19 The way of the sluggard is blocked with thorns,
but the path of the upright is a highway.


Proverbs 18:9
9 One who is slack in his work
is brother to one who destroys.
