6 Whoever sends a message by the hand of a fool cuts off his own feet and (A)drinks violence.
13 Like the cold of snow in the time of harvest is (A)a faithful messenger to those who send him; he refreshes the soul of his masters.
26 Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to those who send him.
17 A wicked messenger falls into trouble, but (A)a faithful envoy brings healing.
31 (A)Then the men who had gone up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we are.”
