8 As he that bindeth a stone in a sling,so is he that giveth honor to a fool.
9 As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard,so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
10 The great God that formed all thingsboth rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.
11 As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.
12 Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? There is more hope of a fool than of him.
13 The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way;a lion is in the streets.
14 As the door turneth upon his hinges,so doth the slothful upon his bed.
