- Like an archer who wounds everyone, So is he who hires a fool or who hires those who pass by.
- Like a dog that returns to its vomit 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 lion is in the open square!"
- As the door turns on its hinges, So does the sluggard on his bed.
|
- The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.
- As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.
- Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
- The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.
- As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.
|
- The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again.
- The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes Than seven men who can give a discreet answer.
- Like one who takes a dog by the ears Is he who passes by and meddles with strife not belonging to him.
- Like a madman who throws Firebrands, arrows and death,
- So is the man who deceives his neighbor, And says, "Was I not joking?"
|
- The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.
- The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render a reason.
- He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.
- As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death,
- So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?
