11 As a dog returns to its vomit, so fools repeat their folly.
11 Like a dog that returns to his vomit is a fool who repeats his folly.
11 As a dog eats its own vomit, so fools recycle silliness.
11 As a dog returns to his own vomit, So a fool repeats his folly.
11 As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his foolishness.
