Proverbs 26:1-3
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 26
1
Like snow in summer and like rain in harvest,
So honor is not fitting for a fool.
2
Like a sparrow in
its
flitting, like a swallow in
its
flying,
So a curse without cause does not come
to rest.
3
A whip is for the horse, a bridle for the donkey,
And a rod for the back of fools.
King James Version
Chapter 26
1
As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a fool.
2
As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.
3
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 26
1
Like snow in summer and rain at harvest, honor is inappropriate for a fool.
2
Like a flitting sparrow or a fluttering swallow, an undeserved curse goes nowhere.
3
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the backs of fools.
New Living Translation
Chapter 26
1
Honor is no more associated with fools
than snow with summer or rain with harvest.
2
Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow,
an undeserved curse will not land on its intended victim.
3
Guide a horse with a whip, a donkey with a bridle,
and a fool with a rod to his back!
English Standard Version
Chapter 26
1
Like snow in summer or rain in harvest, so honor is not fitting for a fool.
2
Like a sparrow in its flitting, like a swallow in its flying, a curse that is causeless does not alight.
3
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the back of fools.
New International Version
Chapter 26
1
Like snow in summer or rain in harvest, honor is not fitting for a fool.
2
Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow, an undeserved curse does not come to rest.
3
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the backs of fools!
New King James Version
Chapter 26
1
As snow in summer and rain in harvest,
So honor is not fitting for a fool.
2
Like a flitting sparrow, like a flying swallow,
So a curse without cause shall not alight.
3
A whip for the horse,
A bridle for the donkey,
And a rod for the fool’s back.
