RF PRO 26:1 Like snow in summer, and rain in harvest,
So honour becomes not a fool!
RF PRO 26:2 Like a wandering bird, and a swallow's flight,
So the causeless curse will not come.
RF PRO 26:3 A whip for a horse, a rein for an ass,
But a rod for the back of a fool.
RF PRO 26:4 Answer no fool, like his folly,
Lest you make yourself like to himself.
RF PRO 26:5 Reply to a fool as his folly requires,
Lest he seem to be wise in his own eyes.
RF PRO 26:6 Like a legless man, greedy for plunder,
Is entrusting affairs to a fool!
RF PRO 26:7 As a lame man's shanks swing loose,
Wit does in the mouth of fools.
RF PRO 26:8 Like a sparkling gem among rubbish,
Is honour conferred on a fool.
RF PRO 26:9 Like a thorn in the hand of a drunkard,
A proverb is in the mouth of a fool.
RF PRO 26:10 A Troop of Fools.
Many reel and shout when drunk,
Yet a fool and a drunkard are proud.
RF PRO 26:11 Like a dog returns to his vomit,
A fool returns to his folly.
RF PRO 26:12 See a man in his own eyes wise,
More hope for a fool than for him.
RF PRO 26:13 Upon Cowardly Idleness.
"There's a wolf on the road," says the sluggard,
"A lion opposes my path!
RF PRO 26:14 "As a door turns on its hinges,
A sluggard turns on his bed.
RF PRO 26:15 Though the sluggard dips hand in the dish,
It exhausts him to lift to his mouth.
RF PRO 26:16 Yet an idler thinks himself wiser,
Than those who can speak good sense.
RF PRO 26:17 Against Making Mischief.
He goes to take a dog by the ears,
Who joins in a quarrel not his.
RF PRO 26:18 Like a fool hurling darts, fire, and death,
RF PRO 26:19 Is the man who deceives his neighbour,
Then exclaims, "I am only in sport!"
RF PRO 26:20 A fire goes out without fuel,
And without a tattler quarrels cease.
RF PRO 26:21 Like charcoal, and wood to fire,
Is a quarrelsome man starting strife.
RF PRO 26:22 The words of a Whisperer, like sweets,
Go down to the depths of the breast.
RF PRO 26:23 Like silver dross in a Smeltery,
Are double lips, and a wicked heart.
RF PRO 26:24 Hatred lodges under his lips,
And deception rests in his breast.
RF PRO 26:25 Though his voice is pleasant,
trust not For his heart is fully corrupt.
RF PRO 26:26 Though he deceitfully hides his hate,
In public his malice appears.
RF PRO 26:27 Many dig the pit for his fall,
And his flung stone turns on himself!
RF PRO 26:28 His lying tongue hates those it wounds,
And his flattering mouth, those it ruins.
