This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Pro_18:9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
Ver. 9. He also that is slothful in his work.] As he must needs be that goes peddling about with tales, and buzzing evil reports into the ears of those that will hear them. See 1Ti_5:3, with the note there. Lata negligentia dolus est, saith the civilian.
Is brother to him that is a great waster.] Est frater Domini disperditionis, will as certainly come to poverty as the greatest waster of good. A man dies no less surely, though not so suddenly, of a consumption than of an apoplexy.
