הָכֵן בַּחוּץ מְלַאכְתֶּךָ וְעַתְּדָהּ בַּשָּׂדֶה לָךְ אַחַר וּבָנִיתָ בֵיתֶֽךָ
Prepare thy work without, And make it fit for thyself in the field; And afterwards build thy house.
אַל־תְּהִי עֵד־חִנָּם בְּרֵעֶךָ וַהֲפִתִּיתָ בִּשְׂפָתֶֽיךָ
Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; And deceive not with thy lips.
אַל־תֹּאמַר כַּאֲשֶׁר עָֽשָׂה־לִי כֵּן אֶֽעֱשֶׂה־לּוֹ אָשִׁיב לָאִישׁ כְּפָעֳלֽוֹ
Say not: ‘I will do so to him as he hath done to me; I will render to the man according to his work.’
עַל־שְׂדֵה אִישׁ־עָצֵל עָבַרְתִּי וְעַל־כֶּרֶם אָדָם חֲסַר־לֵֽב
I went by the field of the slothful, And by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;
וְהִנֵּה עָלָה כֻלּוֹ קִמְּשֹׂנִים כָּסּוּ פָנָיו חֲרֻלִּים וְגֶדֶר אֲבָנָיו נֶהֱרָֽסָה
And, lo, it was all grown over with thistles, The face thereof was covered with nettles, And the stone wall thereof was broken down.
