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.
6He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool Cutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage.
7The legs of the lame are not equal: So is a parable in the mouth of fools.
8As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, So is he that giveth honour to a fool.
9As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard, So is a parable in the mouth of fools.
