About Proverbs

Practical wisdom for daily living, largely from King Solomon.

Old Testament • Book #20

Like snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honor is not fitting for a fool.

Like a fluttering sparrow, like a darting swallow, so the undeserved curse doesn't come to rest.

Do not answer a fool according to his folly, lest you also be like him.

Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes.
