KJV ORIGINAL
And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
And on top of that, they end up with way too much time on their hands, going from house to house with nothing productive to do. They don't just sit around — they become gossips and get all up in everyone's business, saying things they really shouldn't be saying.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Idle time plus gossip equals trouble you don't want to be part of.
