Bible Verses About Instruction: General references

Behold, it was all grown over with thorns. Its surface was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.

a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep;

so your poverty will come as a robber, and your want as an armed man.
