Proverbs 26:12-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 26
12Do you see a person wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him. 13 A lazy one says, 'There is a lion on the road! A lion is in the public square!' 14 As the door turns on its hinges, So does a lazy one on his bed. 15A lazy one buries his hand in the dish; He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again. 16A lazy one is wiser in his own eyes Than seven people who can give a discreet answer.King James Version

Chapter 26
12Do you see a person who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him. 13The slacker says, "There's a lion in the road -- a lion in the public square! " 14A door turns on its hinges, and a slacker, on his bed. 15The slacker buries his hand in the bowl; he is too weary to bring it to his mouth!New Living Translation

Chapter 26
12Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him. 13The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road! There is a lion in the streets!” 14As a door turns on its hinges, so does a sluggard on his bed. 15The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; it wears him out to bring it back to his mouth. 16The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who can answer sensibly.New International Version

12Do you see a person wise in their own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for them. 13A sluggard says, 'There's a lion in the road, a fierce lion roaming the streets!' 14As a door turns on its hinges, so a sluggard turns on his bed. 15A sluggard buries his hand in the dish; he is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.New King James Version
