Proverbs 26:4
Berean Standard Bible
Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you yourself will be like him.
Context
2Like a fluttering sparrow or darting swallow,
an undeserved curse does not come to rest. 3A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey,
and a rod for the backs of fools! 4Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
or you yourself will be like him. 5Answer a fool according to his folly,
lest he become wise in his own eyes. 6Like cutting off one’s own feet or drinking violence
is the sending of a message by the hand of a fool.
