- Like an archer who wounds at random is he who hires a fool or any passer-by.
- As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool 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 roaming the streets!"
- As a door turns on its hinges, so a sluggard turns 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 too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.
- The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who answer discreetly.
- Like one who seizes a dog by the ears is a passer-by who meddles in a quarrel not his own.
- Like a madman shooting firebrands or deadly arrows
- is a man who deceives his neighbor and says, "I was only 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?
