PR-26:1 As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is
not seemly
for a fool.
PR-26:2 As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so
the curse
causeless shall not come.
PR-26:3 A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod
for the fool's
back.
PR-26:4 Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou
also be like unto
him.
PR-26:5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise
in his own
conceit.
PR-26:6 He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth
off the feet,
[and] drinketh damage.
PR-26:7 The legs of the lame are not equal: so [is] a parable
in the mouth of
fools.
PR-26:8 As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so [is] he that
giveth honour
to a fool.
PR-26:9 [As] a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard, so
[is] a parable
in the mouth of fools.
PR-26:10 The great [God] that formed all [things] both
rewardeth the fool,
and rewardeth transgressors.
PR-26:11 As a dog returneth to his vomit, [so] a fool returneth
to his folly.
PR-26:12 Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? [there is]
more hope of a
fool than of him.
PR-26:13 The slothful [man] saith, [There is] a lion in the way;
a lion [is]
in the streets.
PR-26:14 [As] the door turneth upon his hinges, so [doth] the
slothful upon
his bed.
PR-26:15 The slothful hideth his hand in [his] bosom; it
grieveth him to
bring it again to his mouth.
PR-26:16 The sluggard [is] wiser in his own conceit than seven
men that can
render a reason.
PR-26:17 He that passeth by, [and] meddleth with strife
[belonging] not to
him, [is like] one that taketh a dog by the ears.
PR-26:18 As a mad [man] who casteth firebrands, arrows, and
death,
PR-26:19 So [is] the man [that] deceiveth his neighbour, and
saith, Am not I
in sport?
PR-26:20 Where no wood is, [there] the fire goeth out: so where
[there is] no
talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
PR-26:21 [As] coals [are] to burning coals, and wood to fire;
so [is] a
contentious man to kindle strife.
PR-26:22 The words of a talebearer [are] as wounds, and they go
down into the
innermost parts of the belly.
PR-26:23 Burning lips and a wicked heart [are like] a potsherd
covered with
silver dross.
PR-26:24 He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth
up deceit
within him;
PR-26:25 When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for [there
are] seven
abominations in his heart.
PR-26:26 [Whose] hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness
shall be showed
before the [whole] congregation.
PR-26:27 Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that
rolleth a stone,
it will return upon him.
PR-26:28 A lying tongue hateth [those that are] afflicted by it;
and a
flattering mouth worketh ruin.
