Proverbs 26:7 Context
5Answere a foole according to his folly, lest hee be wise in his owne conceit. 6He that sendeth a message by the hand of a foole, cutteth off the feete, and drinketh dammage. 7The legges of the lame are not equall: so is a parable in the mouth of fooles. 8As hee that bindeth a stone in a sling; so is hee that giueth honour to a foole. 9As a thorne goeth vp into the hand of a drunkard; so is a parable in the mouth of fooles.
