10 The one who hires a fool or who hires those passing byis like an archer who wounds everyone.
11 As a dog returns to its vomit,so a fool repeats his foolishness.
12 Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
13 The slacker says, “There’s a lion in the road —a lion in the public square! ”
14 A door turns on its hinges,and a slacker, on his bed.
15 The slacker buries his hand in the bowl;he is too weary to bring it to his mouth.
16 In his own eyes, a slacker is wiser than seven men who can answer sensibly.
