Proverbs 26:5-7
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 Answer fools according to their folly,
lest they be wise in their own eyes.(A)
6 It is like cutting off one’s foot and drinking down violence,
to send a message by a fool.
7 The legs of a lame person hang limp;
so does a proverb in the mouth of a fool.(B)
