'Fool's' in the Bible

The king composed this mourning song for Abner: "Should Abner's death be like a fool's?

"Now, I've become the object of their mocking melodies; I'm nothing but a fool's proverb to them!

Eloquent words are not appropriate on a fool’s lips;how much worse are lies for a ruler.

Wisdom is the focus of the perceptive,but a fool’s eyes roam to the ends of the earth.

A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back.

The one who sends a message by a fool’s handcuts off his own feet and drinks violence.

Watch your step whenever you visit God's house, and come more ready to listen than to offer a fool's sacrifice, since fools never think they're doing evil.
