# the provocation of a fool is heavier than both
2017-06-21 20:47:54 +00:00
The difficulty of being patient with a fool who provokes you is spoken of as if that difficulty were heavy. Alternate translation: "the provocation of a fool is harder to tolerate than either of them" or "It is harder to be patient when a fool provokes you than it is to be patient while carrying them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
