³² and they bring out an evil account of the land which they have spied unto the sons of Israel, saying, `The land into which we passed over to spy it, is a land eating up its inhabitants; and all the people whom we saw in its midst `are' men of stature;

³³ and there we saw the Nephilim, sons of Anak, of the Nephilim; and we are in our own eyes as grasshoppers; and so we were in their eyes.'

¹⁹ The way of the slothful `is' as a hedge of briers, And the path of the upright is raised up.

¹³ The slothful hath said, `A lion `is' in the way, A lion `is' in the broad places.'

¹⁴ The door turneth round on its hinge, And the slothful on his bed.

¹⁵ The slothful hath hid his hand in a dish, He is weary of bringing it back to his mouth.

¹⁶ Wiser `is' the slothful in his own eyes, Than seven `men' returning a reason.
