Ecclesiastes 10:6-17

61follyH5529 is setH5414 in manyH7227 exaltedH4791 placesH4791 while richH6223 menH6223 sitH3427 in humbleH8216 placesH8216. 7I have seenH7200 2slavesH5650 riding 3on horsesH5483 and princesH8269 walkingH1980 like slavesH5650 on the landH776.

84He who digsH2658 a pitH1475 may fallH5307 into it, and a 5serpentH5175 may biteH5391 him who breaksH6555 throughH6555 a wallH1447. 9He who quarriesH5265 stonesH68 may be hurtH6087 by them, and he who splitsH1234 logsH6086 may be endangeredH5533 by them. 10IfH518 the 6axeH1270 is dullH6949 and he does not sharpenH7043 its edgeH6440, then he must 7exertH1396 more strengthH2428. WisdomH2451 has the advantageH3504 of givingH3787 successH3787. 11IfH518 the serpentH5175 bitesH5391 89before being charmedH3908, thereH369 is noH369 profitH3504 for the charmerH1167H3956. 1210WordsH1697 from the mouthH6310 of a wiseH2450 manH2450 are graciousH2580, while the lipsH8193 of a 11foolH3684 consumeH1104 him; 13the beginningH8462 of 12his talkingH1697H6310 is follyH5531 and the endH319 of 13it is wickedH7463 14madnessH1948. 14Yet the 15foolH5530 multipliesH7235 wordsH1697. NoH3808 manH120 knowsH3045 whatH4100 will happenH1961, and whoH4310 can tellH5046 him 16whatH834 will comeH1961 afterH4480H310 him? 15The toilH5999 of 17a foolH3684 so weariesH3021 him that he does not even knowH3045 how to goH1980 to a cityH5892. 16WoeH337 to you, O landH776, whoseH7945 18kingH4428 is a ladH5288 and whose princesH8269 19feastH398 in the morningH1242. 17BlessedH835 are you, O landH776, whoseH7945 kingH4428 is of nobilityH1121H2715 and whose princesH8269 eatH398 at the appropriate timeH6256--for strengthH1369 and not for 20drunkennessH8358.
