Ecclesiastes 10:1
|
|
Dead flies cause the oil of the perfumer to
send forth an evil odor; so doth a little folly outweigh wisdom and honor. |
|
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:2 |
|
A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but
a fool's heart at his left. |
| |
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:3 |
|
Yea also, when the fool walketh by the way,
his understanding faileth him, and he saith to every one that he is a fool. |
| |
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:4 |
|
If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee,
leave not thy place; for gentleness allayeth great offences. |
| |
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:5 |
|
There is an evil which I have seen under the
sun, as it were an error which proceedeth from the ruler: |
| |
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:6 |
|
folly is set in great dignity, and the rich
sit in a low place. |
| |
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:7 |
|
I have seen servants upon horses, and princes
walking like servants upon the earth. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:8 |
|
He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and
whoso breaketh through a wall, a serpent shall bite him. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:9 |
|
Whoso heweth out stones shall be hurt therewith;
and he that cleaveth wood is endangered thereby. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:10 |
|
If the iron be blunt, and one do not whet the
edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:11 |
|
If the serpent bite before it is charmed, then
is there no advantage in the charmer. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:12 |
|
The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious;
but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:13 |
|
The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness;
and the end of his talk is mischievous madness. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:14 |
|
A fool also multiplieth words: yet man knoweth
not what shall be; and that which shall be after him, who can tell him? |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:15 |
|
The labor of fools wearieth every one of them;
for he knoweth not how to go to the city. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:16 |
|
Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child,
and thy princes eat in the morning! |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:17 |
|
Happy art thou, O land, when thy king is the
son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!
|
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:18 |
|
By slothfulness the roof sinketh in; and through
idleness of the hands the house leaketh. |
|
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:19 |
|
A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh
glad the life; and money answereth all things. |
| |
|
|
| Ecclesiastes 10:20 |
|
Revile not the king, no, not in thy thought;
and revile not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the heavens shall carry
the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter. |
