Proverbs 26:11 in Context — Proverbs 26

9 Espinas hincadas en mano del embriagado, tal es el proverbio en la boca de los necios.

10 El grande cría todas las cosas; y da la paga al insensato, y la da á los transgresores.

11 Como perro que vuelve á su vómito, así el necio que repite su necedad.

12 ¿Has visto hombre sabio en su opinión? más esperanza hay del necio que de él.

13 Dice el perezoso: El león está en el camino; el león está en las calles.
