SIL Translator’s Notes on Proverbs 10:5

10:5

Notice the parallel parts that contrast in meaning:

5a
He who gathers in summer is a wise son,

5b but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.

This proverb contrasts the actions of a wise son and a disgraceful son during the time when people need to harvest the crops.
