Proverbs 6:10 meaning and explanation

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,

Proverbs 6:10, Berean Standard Bible

Explanation preview

The slacker says a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands, and the repeated word "little" exposes the excuse: small indulgences feel harmless, yet they add up.
