As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.
2 of 28
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back.

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.
4 of 28

He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage.
6 of 28
The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
7 of 28
As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.

12 of 28
The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.

He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.
17 of 28
As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death,
18 of 28
So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?
19 of 28
Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
20 of 28
As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife.
21 of 28

Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.
23 of 28
He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;
24 of 28
When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.
25 of 28
Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shewed before the whole congregation.
26 of 28
Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him.

A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.

IMPORTANT: All Scripture text has context and background. Scripture should never be read literally or in isolation. Always seek clarification from religious scholars and teachers. In general, Scripture adheres to four principles: (1) Literal Meaning - What the Scripture says (2) Historical Setting - The story events; how the Scripture was understood in its time (3) Grammar - The surrounding sentence and paragraph; textual context (4) Synthesis - A comparison with similar Scripture to give a better contextual understanding
