Proverbs 26:7


Proverbs 26:6 Proverbs 26:7 (KJV) Proverbs 26:8
He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off the feet, [and] drinketh damage.
The legs of the lame are not equal: so [is] a parable in the mouth of fools.
As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so [is] he that giveth honour to a fool.
