Proverbs 26:8-28 - ESV - Like one who binds the stone in the sling is on...

8 Like one who binds the stone in the sling is ¹one who gives honor to a fool.

9 Like ²a thorn that goes up into the hand of a drunkard is a proverb in the mouth of fools.

10 Like an archer who wounds everyone is one who hires a passing fool or drunkard.^a

11 Like ³a dog that returns to his vomit is ⁴a fool who repeats his folly.

12 Do you see a man who is ⁵wise in his own eyes? ⁶There is more hope for a fool than for him.

13 ⁷The sluggard says, "There is a lion in the road! There is a lion in the streets!"

14 As a door turns on its hinges, so does a sluggard on his bed.

15 ⁸The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; it wears him out to bring it back to his mouth.

16 The sluggard is ⁹wiser in his own eyes ¹⁰than seven men who can answer sensibly.

17 Whoever meddles in a quarrel not his own is like one who takes a passing dog by the ears.

18 Like a madman who throws ¹¹firebrands, arrows, and death

19 is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, "I am only joking!"

20 For lack of wood the fire goes out, and where there is no ¹²whisperer, ¹³quarreling ceases.

21 As charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire, so is ¹⁴a quarrelsome man for kindling strife.

22 ¹⁵The words of ¹⁶a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body.

23 ¹⁷Like the ¹⁸glaze^b covering an earthen vessel are fervent lips with an evil heart.

24 Whoever hates disguises himself with his lips and harbors deceit in his heart;

25 ¹⁹when he speaks graciously, believe him not, for there are ²⁰seven abominations in his heart;

26 though his hatred be covered with deception, his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.

27 ²¹Whoever digs a pit will fall into it, and a stone will come back on him who starts it rolling.

28 A lying tongue hates its victims, and a flattering mouth works ruin.

Provérbios 26:8 Como o que ata a pedra na funda, assim é aquele que dá honra ao tolo.

Proverbs 26:8 As he that bindeth * a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.

Proverbs 26:8 Like one who binds a stone in a sling Is he who gives honor to a fool.

Provérbios 26:8 Como amarrar uma pedra na atiradeira,assim é prestar honra ao insensato.
