The craving of the sluggard kills him, because his hands refuse to work.
In context
23Whoever guards his mouth and his tongue guards his life from troubles. 24Insolent, arrogant—“Scoffer” is his name; he acts in a fury of pride. 25The craving of the sluggard kills him, because his hands refuse to work. 26All day long he craves and craves, but the righteous gives and does not hold back. 27The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination—how much more when he brings it with a scheme.
