2. Like a sparrow in its flitting, like a swallow in its flying, So a curse without cause does not alight.
3. A whip is for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, And a rod for the back of fools.
4. Do not answer a fool according to his folly, Or you will also be like him.
5. Answer a fool as his folly deserves, That he not be wise in his own eyes.
6. He cuts off his own feet and drinks violence Who sends a message by the hand of a fool.
