Proverbs 26:11
"As an archer who wounds all, so is he who hires a fool or he who hires those who pass by."
Key Reflection
This proverb compares hiring a fool to the random and harmful action of an archer shooting arrows at everyone. Just as the archer's aimless shots wound indiscriminately, so too does entrusting important tasks or leadership roles to unqualified individuals bring unintended harm and chaos.
