Ecclesiastes 10:4-10
4If the spiritH7307 of the rulerH4910 rise up against thee, leave not thy placeH4725; for gentleness allayeth greatH1419 offences.
5There is an evilH7451 which I have seenH7200 under the sunH8121, as it were an error which proceedeth from the rulerH7989: 6folly is setH5414 in greatH7227 dignity, and the richH6223 sitH3427 in a lowH8216 place. 7I have seenH7200 servantsH5650 upon horsesH5483, and princesH8269 walkingH1980 like servantsH5650 upon the earthH776.
8He that diggeth a pit shall fallH5307 into it; and whoso breaketh through a wallH1447, a serpent shall bite him. 9Whoso heweth out stonesH68 shall be hurt therewith; and he that cleaveth woodH6086 is endangered thereby. 10If the ironH1270 be blunt, and one do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strengthH2428: but wisdomH2451 is profitable to direct.
