so fools repeat their folly.^(B)

Proverbs 26:11

King James Version

¹¹As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.

¹¹^(A)As a dog returns to his own vomit,
^(B)So a fool repeats his folly.

²²Though you grind a fool in a mortar,
grinding them like grain with a pestle,
you will not remove their folly from them.

²²Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him.

²²^(A)Though you grind a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with crushed grain,
Yet his foolishness will not depart from him.

New International Version (NIV)
