Proverbs 26:1-3
Names of God Bible

All about Fools

26 Like snow in summertime and rain at harvest time,
    so honor is not right for a fool.
2 Like a fluttering sparrow,
    like a darting swallow,
    so a hastily spoken curse does not come to rest.
3 A whip is for the horse,
    a bridle is for the donkey,
        and a rod is for the backs of fools.
