Proverbs 26:2

Lexham English Bible

²Like the sparrow is to fluttering and like the swallow is to flying,
so an undeserved curse does not go forth.

Proverbs 26:2

International Standard Version

²Like a fluttering sparrow
or a swallow in flight,
a curse without cause will not alight.

¹⁷Grabbing onto the ears of a dog
passing by is one who meddles in a quarrel that is not his own.

¹⁷Picking up a dog by the ears—
that’s what someone is like who^[a] meddles in another’s fight.
