Proverbs 26:4-6

Good News Translation

⁴ If you answer a silly question, you are just as silly as the person who asked it.

⁵ Give a silly answer to a silly question, and the one who asked it will realize that he's not as smart as he thinks.

⁶ If you let a fool deliver a message, you might as well cut off your own feet; you are asking for trouble.
