PROVERBS 26:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.”
The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; he is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth—a repetition of 19:24, emphasizing the sluggard's profound apathy. The image recurs because this truth about laziness is fundamental. The theological significance involves the principle of the self-destructiveness of sloth.
