Ecclesiastes 10:12-20

12The wordsH1697 of a wiseH2450 man's mouthH6310 are gracious; but the lipsH8193 of a foolH3684 swallowH1104 up himself. 13The beginning of the wordsH1697 of his mouthH6310 is follyH5531; and the endH319 of his talk is mischievous madness. 14And the foolH5530 multiplieth wordsH1697: [yet] manH120 knoweth not what shall beH1961; and what shall beH1961 after him, who will tellH5046 him? 15The labour of foolsH3684 wearieth them, because they knowH3045 not how to go to the cityH5892. 16Woe to thee, O landH776, when thy kingH4428 is a child, and thy princesH8269 eatH398 in the morningH1242! 17Happy art thou, O landH776, when thy kingH4428 is a sonH1121 of nobles, and thy princesH8269 eatH398 in [due] season, for strengthH1369, and not for drunkenness! 18By much sloth fulness the framework falleth in; and through idleness of the handsH3027 the houseH1004 drippeth. 19A feast is madeH6213 for laughterH7814, and wineH3196 maketh lifeH2416 merry; but moneyH3701 answereth everythingH3605. 20CurseH7043 not the kingH4428, no, not in thy thought; and curseH7043 not the richH6223 in thy bedchamber: for the birdH5775 of the air will carry the voiceH6963, and that which hath wingsH3671 will tellH5046 the matterH1697.
