Proverbs 26:15-17

Amplified Bible

¹⁵ 
The lazy person buries his hand in the dish [losing opportunity after opportunity];
It wearies him to bring it back to his mouth.^(A)
16 
The lazy person is wiser in his own eyes
Than seven [sensible] men who can give a discreet answer.
¹⁷ 
Like one who grabs a dog by the ears [and is likely to be bitten]
Is he who, passing by, stops to meddle with a dispute that is none of his business.
