Proverbs 26:8 WEB

⁶  One who sends a message by the hand of a fool Is cutting off feet and drinking violence.

⁷  Like the legs of the lame that hang loose: So is a parable in the mouth of fools.

⁸  As one who binds a stone in a sling, So is he who gives honor to a fool.

⁹  Like a thornbush that goes into the hand of a drunkard, So is a parable in the mouth of fools.

¹⁰  As an archer who wounds all, So is he who hires a fool Or he who hires those who pass by.
