Proverbs 6:6-11

The chiastic structure of Proverbs 6:6-11

6:6 Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.
	7 Without having any chief, officer or ruler,
		8 she prepares her food in summer, and gathers her sustenance in harvest.
		9 How long will you lie there, O sluggard? When will you arise from your sleep?
	10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,
11 and poverty will come upon you like a vagabond, and want like an armed man.

A partial interlinear version (each Hebrew word as a hyphened group of English words) gives further insight into the chiastic structure. Here's how it reads:

6:6 Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.
	7 Without having any chief, officer or ruler,
		8 she-stores in-the-summer provision-of-her she-gathers at-the-harvest food-of-her
		9 until when? sluggard will-you-lie when? will-you-get-up from-sleep-of-you
	10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,
11 and-he-will-come like-one-being-bandit poverty-of-you and-scarcity-of-you like-man-of armor
