Proverbs 26:1-3
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

26 Like snow in summer or rain in harvest,
    so honour is not fitting for a fool.
2 Like a sparrow in its flitting, like a swallow in its flying,
    an undeserved curse goes nowhere.
3 A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey,
    and a rod for the back of fools.
