Proverbs 26:8-10
Young's Literal Translation

8 As one who is binding a stone in a sling, So [is] he who is giving honour to a fool.

9 A thorn hath gone up into the hand of a drunkard, And a parable in the mouth of fools.

10 Great [is] the Former of all, And He is rewarding a fool, And is rewarding transgressors.
