( 46 ) Pr 26:9 As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard , so is a parable in the mouth of fools "k@ciyl".
.. is a parable in the mouth of fool ..
The thorn is mentioned here for the fool picture.
The thorn is compared to a drunk. A thorn in this case
is a drug called alcohol.
The fool is a thorn in the presence of others,
he is a prick of a character.
( 47 ) Pr 26:10 � The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool "k@ciyl", and rewardeth transgressors . {The great...: or, A great man grieveth all, and he hireth the fool, he hireth also transgressors}

What a strange statement to make about fools..
They love the feelings from drugs, or feelings or empowerment
they return to them again and again for the same feelings...
( 49 ) Pr 26:12 � Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit ? there is more hope of a fool "k@ciyl" than of him.
.. there is more hope of a fool ..
No hope rests with fools, because they are trapped in the thorns
around about them. Satan is the thorny covering over the seed of nations !
( 50 ) Pr 28:26 � He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool "k@ciyl": but whoso walketh wisely , he shall be delivered .
.. trusteth in his own heart is a fool ..
We are not to cling to our own heart, trusting our feelings...
Such is the demise of the fool...
