10 The one who hires a fool or who hires those passing by

Proverbs 26:24-28
Christian Standard Bible
24 A hateful person disguises himself with his speech
and harbors deceit within.
25 When he speaks graciously, don’t believe him,
for there are seven detestable things in his heart.(A)
26 Though his hatred is concealed by deception,
his evil will be revealed in the assembly.
27 The one who digs a pit will fall into it,
and whoever rolls a stone—
it will come back on him.(B)
28 A lying tongue hates those it crushes,
and a flattering mouth causes ruin.
Proverbs 27:6

5 A person who flatters his neighbor
spreads a net for his feet.(A)
