Proverbs 26:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible

26 1 As the snow in the Summer, and as the rain in the Harvest are not meet, so is honor unseemly for a fool.

2 As the sparrow by flying, and the swallow by flying escape, so the curse that is causeless, shall not come.

3 Unto the horse belongeth a whip, to the ass a bridle, and a rod to the fool’s back.
