Proverbs 26:8-11 Common English Bible (CEB)

8. Like tying a stone in a sling,so is giving respect to a fool.

9. Like a thorny bush in the hand of a drunk,so is a proverb in the mouth of fools.

10. Like an archer who wounds someone randomly,so is one who hires a fool or a passerby.

11. Like a dog that returns to its vomit,so a fool repeats foolish mistakes.
