Proverbs 26:8-10

Easy-to-Read Version

⁸ Showing honor to a fool is as bad as tying a rock in a sling.

⁹ A fool trying to say something wise is like a drunk trying to pick a thorn out of his hand.

¹⁰ Hiring a fool or a stranger who is just passing by is dangerous—you don’t know who might get hurt.
