26:5 要照愚昧人的愚妄話回答他,免得他自以為有智慧。
26:6 藉愚昧人手寄信的,是砍斷自己的腳,自受(原文是:喝)損害。
26:7 瘸子的腳空存無用;箴言在愚昧人的口中也是如此。
26:8 將尊榮給愚昧人的,好像人把石子包在機弦裡。
26:9 箴言在愚昧人的口中,好像荊棘刺入醉漢的手。
26:10 雇愚昧人的,與雇過路人的,就像射傷眾人的弓箭手。
26:11 愚昧人行愚妄事,行了又行,就如狗轉過來吃牠所吐的。
26:12 你見自以為有智慧的人嗎?愚昧人比他更有指望。

4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
or you yourself will be just like him.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
or he will be wise in his own eyes.
6 Sending a message by the hands of a fool
is like cutting off one’s feet or drinking poison.
7 Like the useless legs of one who is lame
is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
8 Like tying a stone in a sling
is the giving of honor to a fool.
9 Like a thornbush in a drunkard’s hand
is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
10 Like an archer who wounds at random
is one who hires a fool or any passer-by.
11 As a dog returns to its vomit,
so fools repeat their folly.
12 Do you see a person wise in their own eyes?
There is more hope for a fool than for them.
or you yourself will be just like him.

《箴言》用了很長的篇幅來說到「愚昧人」,讓人不禁想到「愚昧人」是和「智慧人」是相對應的。也想到人心中的虛榮,就是想成為「智慧人」卻不願意成為「愚昧人」,但是偏偏都做「愚昧人」的事。
為什麼這樣說呢?許多人自以為有聰明、有智慧,認為自己信主之後就領受聖靈了,不需要研讀教義,只要照己意讀聖經就好了,就覺得自己從上帝那裡有領受,認為用心研究教義認識真理的人和法利賽人一樣,追求字句叫人死,或是有知識就會自高自大!
這是多麼愚昧得教導,怪不得教會世俗化很嚴重,都是受到這些假先知的影響!弟兄姊妹們,不要再做愚昧人,好好研讀教義,好認識聖經的真理,不要再做愚昧人,被世俗的小學影響,失去基督為根基!
