6 He who sends a message by the hand of a foolCuts off his own feet and drinks violence.
7 Like the legs of the lame that hang limpIs a proverb in the mouth of fools.
8 Like one who binds a stone in a slingIs he who gives honor to a fool.
9 Like a thorn that goes into the hand of a drunkardIs a proverb in the mouth of fools.
10 The great God who formed everythingGives the fool his hire and the transgressor his wages.
11 As a dog returns to his own vomit,So a fool repeats his folly.
12 Do you see a man wise in his own eyes?There is more hope for a fool than for him.
