절	Good News Translation (1992)	King James Version
1	Praise for a fool is out of place, like snow in summer or rain at harvest time.	As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a fool.
2	Curses cannot hurt you unless you deserve them. They are like birds that fly by and never light.	As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.
3	You have to whip a horse, you have to bridle a donkey, and you have to beat a fool.	A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool’s back.
4	If you answer a silly question, you are just as silly as the person who asked it.	Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.
5	Give a silly answer to a silly question, and the one who asked it will realize that he's not as smart as he thinks.	Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.
6	If you let a fool deliver a message, you might as well cut off your own feet; you are asking for trouble.	He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage.
7	A fool can use a proverb about as well as crippled people can use their legs.	The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
8	Praising someone who is stupid makes as much sense as tying a stone in a sling.	As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.
9	A fool quoting a wise saying reminds you of a drunk trying to pick a thorn out of his hand.	As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
10	An employer who hires any fool that comes along is only hurting everybody concerned.	The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.
11	A fool doing some stupid thing a second time is like a dog going back to its vomit.	As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.
12	The most stupid fool is better off than those who think they are wise when they are not.	Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
13	Why don't lazy people ever get out of the house? What are they afraid of Lions?	The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.
14	Lazy people turn over in bed. They get no farther than a door swinging on its hinges.	As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.
15	Some people are too lazy to put food in their own mouths.	The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.
16	A lazy person will think he is smarter than seven men who can give good reasons for their opinions.	The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render a reason.
17	Getting involved in an argument that is none of your business is like going down the street and grabbing a dog by the ears.	He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.
18	—	As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death,
19	Someone who tricks someone else and then claims that he was only joking is like a crazy person playing with a deadly weapon.	So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?
20	Without wood, a fire goes out; without gossip, quarreling stops.	Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
21	Charcoal keeps the embers glowing, wood keeps the fire burning, and troublemakers keep arguments alive.	As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife.
22	Gossip is so tasty! How we love to swallow it!	The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
23	Insincere talk that hides what you are really thinking is like a fine glaze on a cheap clay pot.	Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.
24	A hypocrite hides hate behind flattering words.	He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;
25	They may sound fine, but don't believe him, because his heart is filled to the brim with hate.	When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.
26	He may disguise his hatred, but everyone will see the evil things he does.	Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shewed before the whole congregation.
27	People who set traps for others get caught themselves. People who start landslides get crushed.	Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him.
28	You have to hate someone to want to hurt him with lies. Insincere talk brings nothing but ruin.	A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.
