Unwise

I was reading Proverbs 26 and 10 of the first 11 verses talk about fools and their folly.  It seems he doesn't hold them in very high regard.


1 Like snow in summer or rain in harvest, honor is not fitting for a fool.
3 A whip for the horse, a halter for the donkey, and a rod for the backs of fools!
4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you will be like him yourself.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly, or he will be wise in his own eyes.
6 Like cutting off one's feet or drinking violence is the sending of a message by the hand of a   fool.
7 Like a lame man's legs that hang limp is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
8 Like tying a stone in a sling is the giving of honor to a fool.
9 Like a thorn bush in a drunkard's hand is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
10 Like an archer who wounds at random is he who hires a fool or any passer-by.
11 As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly.


Then verse 12 reveals who Solomon is REALLY talking too...12Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
So if you think fools are bad, be careful you don't think too highly of yourself.
