Proverbs 26:10

New International Reader's Version

Anyone who hires a foolish person or someone who is passing by is like a person who shoots arrows at just anybody.

See the chapter Copy

Godly people get what they should get on earth. So ungodly people and sinners will certainly get what they should get!

Foolish people who do the same foolish things again are like a dog that returns to where it has thrown up.

A proverb in the mouth of a foolish person is like a thorn in the hand of someone who is drunk.

God “will pay back each person in keeping with what they have done.” (Psalm 62:12; Proverbs 24:12)
