Proverbs 26:2

New International Version

²Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow,
an undeserved curse does not come to rest.^(A)

Proverbs 26:2

King James Version

²As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.

¹⁷Like one who grabs a stray dog by the ears
is someone who rushes into a quarrel not their own.

¹⁷He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.

New International Version (NIV)
