1 Like snow in summer and rain at harvest, honor does not befit a fool.

2 Like a fluttering sparrow or darting swallow, an undeserved curse does not come to rest.

3 A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the backs of fools!

4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you yourself will be like him.

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