Proverbs 6:6

A friend posted a cartoon on her blog with Proverbs 6:6 as the topic, which inspired me to simplify it somewhat with this translation:

Proverbs 6:6 Elias Davis translation.

Burn thou not the ant using glass and concentrated fire, O idle dawdler; who art ever expeditious in sin yet stagnant in virtue. Rather, abandon thy slothful ways and go swiftly to the ant; and in good stead, consider thou her ways, for which God in his infinite wisdom hath created her and purposed her. In this manner shalt thou learn wisdom.
