The writer of Proverbs says a lazy person (aka, a sluggard) is so lazy that when he puts his hand into a dish, what happens next?
Answer He can't lift his hand to his mouth
In this analysis, the picture of a lazy person is certainly exaggerated for effect. It's hard to imagine someone so lazy that he can't bring food to his mouth, but that's the kind of person the writer doesn't want the reader to be.
