1 Like snow in summertime and rain at harvest time, so honor is not right for a fool. 2 Like a fluttering sparrow, like a darting swallow, so a hastily spoken curse does not come to rest. 3 A whip is for the horse, a bridle is for the donkey, and a rod is for the backs of fools. 4 Do not answer a fool with his own stupidity, or you will be like him. 5 Answer a fool with his own stupidity, or he will think he is wise.
