1 Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savour: so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour.
[x]MKJV: As dead flies cause the perfumer's ointment to stink [and] ferment; [so] a little folly [is more] rare than wisdom and] than honor.
BBE: Dead flies make the oil of the perfumer give out an evil smell; more valued is a little wisdom than the great glory of the foolish.
