In Proverbs 6:6-8, ant gathers ‘hay’ when the sun shines; it works very hard without any supervision. You can learn from it and be wise and self discipline. Do not be a sluggard or lazy.
In Proverbs 6:1-5, words from your mouth can trap you. Humble yourself to free yourself from the trap. Do not offer pledge or security if you cannot fulfill it.
Proverbs 6:6-11
[6]Lazy people should learn a lesson from the way ants live.
[7]They have no leader, chief, or ruler,
[8]but they store up their food during the summer, getting ready for winter.
[9]How long is the lazy man going to lie in bed? When is he ever going to get up?
[10]“I’ll just take a short nap,” he says; “I’ll fold my hands and rest a while.”
[11]But while he sleeps, poverty will attack him like an armed robber.
Proverbs 6:1-5
[1]Have you promised to be responsible for someone else’s debts, my child?
[2]Have you been caught by your own words, trapped by your own promises?
[3]Well then, my child, you are in that person’s power, but this is how to get out of it: hurry to him, and beg him to release you.
[4]Don’t let yourself go to sleep or even stop to rest.
[5]Get out of the trap like a bird or a deer escaping from a hunter.
