The sluggard buries his hand in the dish. He is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.
The slacker buries his hand in the dish; it wearies him to bring it back to his mouth.
The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.
The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish; It wearieth him to bring it again to his mouth.
The hater of work puts his hand deep into the basin: lifting it again to his mouth is a weariness to him.
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
Matthew Henry · Verse 15
The sluggard is now out of his bed, but he might have lain there, for any thing he is likely to bring to pass in his work. It is common for men who will not do their duty, to pretend they cannot. Those that are slothful in religion, will not be at the pains to feed their souls with the bread of life, nor to fetch in promised blessings by prayer.
