Proverbs 26:8-10
International Standard Version

8 Tying a stone to a sling—
    that’s what giving honor to a fool is.
9 A thorn in the hand of a drunkard—
    that’s what a proverb quoted by a fool is.
10 An archer who shoots at anyone—
    is like someone who hires a fool or anyone who passes by.
