Proverbs 26:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool, is as he that cutteth off [a]the feet, [b]and drinketh iniquity.
7 As they that lift up the legs of the lame, so is a parable in a fool’s mouth.
8 As the closing up of a precious stone in an heap of stones, so is he that giveth glory to a fool.
