Proverbs 26:10

Like the legs of the lame that hang loose,

so is a parable in the mouth of fools.

As one who binds a stone in a sling,

so is he who gives honor to a fool.

Like a thorn bush that goes into the hand of a drunkard,

so is a parable in the mouth of fools.

As a dog that returns to his vomit,

so is a fool who repeats his folly.

Do you see a man wise in his own eyes?

There is more hope for a fool than for him.

The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road!

A fierce lion roams the streets!”
