6He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off his own feet, and drinketh damage.
7The legs hang limp from the lame; so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
8As a small stone in a heap of stones, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.
9As a thorn that cometh into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
