Proverbs 26:3-12

3A whipH7752 for the horseH5483, a bridleH4964 for the ass, and a rodH7626 for the back of foolsH3684.

4AnswerH6030 notH408 a foolH3684 according to his follyH200, lestH6435 thou also be like unto him.

5AnswerH6030 a foolH3684 according to his follyH200, lestH6435 he be wiseH2450 in his ownH1961 conceit.

6He that sendeth a messageH1697 by the handH3027 of a foolH3684 cutteth offH7096 his own feetH7272, and drinketh in damage.

7The legsH7785 of the lameH6455 hangH1809 loose: soH6310 is a parableH4912 in the mouthH6310 of foolsH3684.

8As a bag of gemsH68 in a heapH5414 of stonesH68, soH3651 is he that giveth honour to a foolH3684.

9As a thornH2336 that goeth upH5927 intoH3027 the handH3027 of a drunkardH7910, soH5927 is a parableH4912 in the month of foolsH3684.

10As an archer that woundeth allH3605, soH5674 is he that hireth the foolH3684 and he that hireth them that passH5674 by.

11As a dogH3611 that returneth to his vomitH6892, soH7725 is a foolH3684 that repeateth his follyH200.

12Seest thou a manH376 wiseH2450 in his ownH376 conceit? there is moreH4480 hopeH8615 of a foolH3684 thanH4480 of him.
