7 Like a lame man’s legs that hang limp, so is a proverb in a fool’s mouth.
8 Like tying a stone into a sling, so is giving honor to a fool.
9 Like a thorn bush in a drunkard’s hand is a proverb in a fool’s mouth.
10 Like an archer who wounds at random is one who hires a fool or any passer-by.
11 Like a dog that returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly.
12 Do you see one wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than him.
13 A slacker says, “There’s a lion on the road! A lion is in the streets!”
