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.
10The great God that formed all things Both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.
11As a dog returneth to his vomit, So a fool returneth to his folly.
12Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? There is more hope of a fool than of him.
