11 As a dog hath returned to its vomit, A fool is repeating  his folly.
         
                                
                        12 Thou hast seen a man wise in his own eyes, More hope of a  fool than of him!
         
                                
                        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.
         
                                
                        17 Laying hold on the ears of a dog, [Is] a passer-by making  himself wrath for strife not his own.
