1As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, So honour is not seemly for a fool.
2As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, So the curse causeless shall not come.
3A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, And a rod for the fools’ back.
4Answer not a fool according to his folly, Lest thou also be like unto him.
5Answer a fool according to his folly, Lest he be wise in his own conceit.
