|
|
As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not
seemly for a fool.
|
|
|
As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the
curse causeless shall not come.
|
|
|
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the
fool's back.
|
|
|
Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be
like unto him.
|
|
|
Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his
own conceit.
|
|
|
He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off
the feet, and drinketh damage.
|
|
|
The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the
mouth of fools.
|
|
|
As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth
honour to a fool.
|
|
|
As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a
parable in the mouths of fools.
|
|
|
The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool,
and rewardeth transgressors.
|
|
|
As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his
folly.
|
|
|
Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope
of a fool than of him.
|
|
|
The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is
in the streets.
|
|
|
As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon
his bed.
|
|
|
The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to
bring it again to his mouth.
|
|
|
The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that
can render a reason.
|
|
|
He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to
him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.
|
|
|
As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death,
|
|
|
So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not
I in sport?
|
|
|
Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is
no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
|
|
|
As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a
contentious man to kindle strife.
|
|
|
The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into
the innermost parts of the belly.
|
|
|
Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered
with silver dross.
|
|
|
He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit
within him;
|
|
|
When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven
abominations in his heart.
|
|
|
Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be
shewed before the whole congregation.
|
|
|
Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a
stone, it will return upon him.
|
|
|
A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a
flattering mouth worketh ruin.
