דֶּ֣רֶךְ עָ֭צֵל כִּמְשֻׂ֣כַת חָ֑דֶק וְאֹ֖רַח יְשָׁרִ֣ים סְלֻלָֽה׃
El camino del perezoso es como seto de espinos: Mas la vereda de los rectos como una calzada.
Rashi on Proverbs
The way of a lazy man is like a hedge of thorns In his eyes, it appears as though the roads are fenced before him with a fence of thorns.
Rashi on Proverbs
like a hedge of Heb. כמשכת. A fence, as in (Isa. 5:5): “I will remove its hedge (משוכתו).”
Rashi on Proverbs
thorns Heb. חדק, thorns. but the path of the upright is even סללה, trodden and cleared. The Midrash Aggadah (Pesikta d’Rav Kahana 11a) states: The way of Esau is like a thorn entangled in a fleece of wool. If you extract it from here, it catches on here. Likewise, no one can extricate himself from his false accusations without money.
