Go to the ant, thou sluggard;
consider her ways, and be wise:
which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,
provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.
How long wilt thou sleep, o sluggard?
when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
so shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth,
and thy want as an armed.

What is that for theoto ? Is it poetry or is it wisdow lesson ?
It is an old text for sure because of the use of thy. Who wrote that ?
Does the way of the ant the expression of will and work and the cicada the vision of its slackness and lack of conscience?
anyway, so shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth,
and thy want as an armed can be a good catch phrase.

For me, it’s poetry.
My formation is theological, I study ancient texts,
and some are speaking me
I ‘ m dividing with you ideas; it’s all !

You didn't tell me who wrote that text. Where it comes from ?
You also catch my attention, but you didn't tell me what it inspires you.
Could you give me some explenation. my theological skills aren't high enough.
