Ecclesiastes 10:12-15

12The wordsH1697 of a wiseH2450 man’sH2450 mouthH6310 are graciousH2580; but the lipsH8193 of a foolH3684 will swallowH1104 upH1104 himself.

13The beginningH8462 of the wordsH1697 of his mouthH6310 is foolishnessH5531: and the endH319 of his talkH1697 is mischievous madnessH1948.

14A foolH5530 also multiplieth wordsH1697: yet manH120 knoweth notH3808 whatH4100 shall be; and that whichH834 shall be afterH310 him, who canH4310 tellH5046 him?

15The labour of foolsH3684 wearieth every one of them, for he knoweth notH3808 howH834 to go to the cityH5892.
