5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes.
6 He that sends a message by the hand of a fool cuts off the feet, and drinks violence.
7 The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
8 As he that binds a stone in a sling, so is he that gives honor to a fool.
9 As a thorn goes up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
10 The great God that formed all things gives the fool his hire, and the transgressor his wages.
11 As a dog returns to his vomit, so a fool returns to his folly.
