The sluggard saith, There is a lion without; I shall be slain in the streets.

The hater of work says, There is a lion outside: I will be put to death in the streets.

Ο οκνηρος λεγει, Λεων ειναι εξω· εν τω μεσω των πλατειων θελω φονευθη.

The slothful man saith, There is a lion without, I shall be slain in the streets.
