Berean Study Bible
Like one who grabs a dog by the ears is a passerby who meddles in a quarrel not his own.

Young's Literal Translation
Laying hold on the ears of a dog, [Is] a passer-by making himself wrath for strife not his own.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
A person who is passing by and meddles in a quarrel that’s not his is like one who grabs a dog by the ears.

New American Standard Bible
[Like] one who takes a dog by the ears Is he who passes by [and] meddles with strife not belonging to him.

King James Bible
He that passeth by, [and] meddleth with strife [belonging] not to him, [is like] one that taketh a dog by the ears.
