Proverbs 26:6

WYC

NIV

6 (As) An halting man in feet, and drinking wickedness, that is, drink harmful to himself, (is) he that sendeth words by a fond messenger. (Like a person who is lame, and like someone who drinketh a drink that is harmful to himself, is he who sendeth words by a foolish messenger.)
6 Sending a message by the hands of a fool is like cutting off one’s feet or drinking poison.
