00:01.080 --> 00:07.600
Chapter 26 As snow in summer and as rain
in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a

00:07.600 --> 00:07.880
fool.

00:08.760 --> 00:13.860
As the bird by wandering, as the swallow
by flying, so the curse causeless shall

00:13.860 --> 00:14.420
not come.

00:15.440 --> 00:19.740
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the
ass, and a rod for the fool's back.

00:21.060 --> 00:25.060
Answer not a fool according to his folly,
lest thou also be likened to him.

00:25.720 --> 00:30.180
Answer a fool according to his folly,
lest he be wise in his own conceit.

00:31.680 --> 00:36.100
He that sendeth a message by the hand of a
fool cutteth off the feet and drinketh

00:36.100 --> 00:36.640
damage.

00:37.660 --> 00:41.800
The legs of the lame are not equal,
so is a parable in the mouth of fools.

00:42.980 --> 00:48.020
As he that bindeth a stone in a sling,
so is he that giveth honour to a fool.

00:49.000 --> 00:54.180
As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a
drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of

00:54.180 --> 00:54.520
fools.

00:55.660 --> 01:00.880
The great God that formed all things both
rewardeth the fool and rewardeth

01:00.880 --> 01:01.740
transgressors.

01:02.700 --> 01:07.320
As a dog returneth to his vomit,
so a fool returneth to his folly.

01:08.540 --> 01:10.860
Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit?

01:11.380 --> 01:13.920
There is more hope of a fool than of him.

01:14.680 --> 01:18.960
The slothful man saith, There is a lion in
the way, a lion is in the streets.

01:19.780 --> 01:24.640
As the door turneth upon his hinges,
so doth the slothful upon his bed.

01:25.440 --> 01:30.480
The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom,
it grieveth him to bring it again to his

01:30.480 --> 01:30.760
mouth.

01:31.860 --> 01:36.080
The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit
than seven men that can render a reason.

01:36.900 --> 01:41.580
He that passeth by, and medleth with
strife belonging not to him, is like one

01:41.580 --> 01:43.240
that taketh a dog by the ears.

01:44.220 --> 01:48.640
As a mad man who casteth firebrands,
arrows, and death, so is the man that

01:48.640 --> 01:51.940
deceiveth his neighbour, and saith,
Am not I in sport?

01:53.320 --> 01:55.860
Where no wood is, there the fire goeth
out.

01:56.420 --> 01:59.380
So where there is no tail-bearer,
the strife ceaseth.

02:00.000 --> 02:04.880
As coals are to burning coals,
and wood to fire, so is a contentious man

02:04.880 --> 02:05.780
to kindle strife.

02:06.420 --> 02:11.400
The words of a tail-bearer are as wounds,
and they go down into the innermost parts

02:11.400 --> 02:11.840
of the belly.

02:13.100 --> 02:17.340
Burning lips, and a wicked heart,
are like a potsherd covered with silver

02:17.340 --> 02:17.880
dross.

02:19.180 --> 02:23.460
He that hateth, dissembleth with his lips,
and layeth up deceit within him.

02:24.420 --> 02:28.720
When he speaketh fair, believe him not,
for there are seven abominations in his

02:28.720 --> 02:29.020
heart.

02:29.800 --> 02:34.260
Whose hatred is covered by deceit,
his wickedness shall be shewed before the

02:34.260 --> 02:35.160
whole congregation.

02:36.620 --> 02:41.780
Whoso diggeth a pit, shall fall therein,
and he that rolleth a stone, it will

02:41.780 --> 02:42.860
return upon him.

02:43.860 --> 02:48.020
A lying tongue hateth those that are
afflicted by it, and a flattering mouth

02:48.020 --> 02:48.960
worketh ruin.
