Proverbs 26:1-4 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. Like snow in the summer or rain at harvest,so honor isn’t appropriate for a fool.

2. Like a darting sparrow, like a flying swallow,so an undeserved curse never arrives.

3. A whip for a horse, a bridle for a donkey,and a rod for the back of fools.

4. Don’t answer fools according to their folly,or you will become like them yourself.
