Amsal 26:6

26:6 Like cutting off the feet or drinking violence, ¹⁵ 

so is sending ¹⁶  a message by the hand of a fool. ¹⁷ 

[16:1]  ¹ tn Heb “and the word of the Lord came to Jehu son of Hanani concerning [or “against”] Baasha, saying.”

[16:7]  ² tn Heb “and also through Jehu son of Hanani the word of the Lord came concerning [or “against”] Baasha and his house, and because of all the evil which he did in the eyes of the Lord.”

[16:7]  ³ tn Heb “angering him by the work of his hands, so that he was like the house of Jeroboam, and because of how he struck it down.”

[14:18]  ⁴ tn Heb “according to the word of the Lord which he spoke.”

[14:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “Get up, change yourself.”

[14:2]  ⁶ tn Heb “look, Ahijah the prophet is there, he told me [I would be] king over this nation.”

[14:25]  ⁷ tn Or “message.”

[14:25]  ⁸ sn Perga was a city in Pamphylia near the southern coast of Asia Minor.

[14:25]  ⁹ sn Attalia was a seaport in the province of Pamphylia on the southern coast of Asia Minor, about 12 mi (20 km) southwest of Perga.

[14:2]  ¹⁰ tn Or “who would not believe.”

[14:2]  ¹¹ tn Or “embittered their minds” (Grk “their souls”). BDAG 502 s.v. κακόω 2 has “make angry, embitter τὰς ψυχάς τινων κατά τινος poison the minds of some persons against another Ac 14:2.”

[10:15]  ¹² tn Grk “And the voice.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

[10:15]  ¹³ tn Or “declare.”

[10:15]  ¹⁴ sn For the significance of this vision see Mark 7:14-23; Rom 14:14; Eph 2:11-22. God directed this change in practice.

[26:6]  ¹⁵ sn Sending a messenger on a mission is like having another pair of feet. But if the messenger is a fool, this proverb says, not only does the sender not have an extra pair of feet – he cuts off the pair he has. It would not be simply that the message did not get through; it would get through incorrectly and be a setback! The other simile uses “violence,” a term for violent social wrongs and injustice. The metaphorical idea of “drinking” violence means suffering violence – it is one’s portion. So sending a fool on a mission will have injurious consequences.

[26:6]  ¹⁶ tn The participle could be taken as the subject of the sentence: “the one who sends…cuts off…and drinks.”

[26:6]  ¹⁷ sn The consequence is given in the first line and the cause in the second. It would be better not to send a message at all than to use a fool as messenger.
