⁴ Give no sleep to your eyes, or rest to them;

⁴ I will not give sleep to my eyes, or rest to my eyeballs,

¹⁰ A little sleep, a little rest, a little folding of the hands in sleep:

¹¹ Then loss will come on you like an outlaw, and your need like an armed man

¹⁰ Whatever comes to your hand to do with all your power, do it because there is no work, or thought, or knowledge, or wisdom in the place of the dead to which you are going.

¹⁷ Let not him who is on the house-top go down to take anything out of his house:

¹⁸ And let not him who is in the field go back to get his coat.

³⁵ So you are to keep watch: because you are not certain when the master of the house is coming, in the evening, or in the middle of the night, or at the cock's cry, or in the morning;

³⁶ For fear that, coming suddenly, he sees you sleeping.
