< Ecclesiastes 10 >
1 Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savour: so does a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour.
Flies of death it causes to stink it ferments [the] oil of a perfumer [is] weighty more than wisdom more than honor folly a little.
2 A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left.
[the] heart of A wise [person] [is] to right [hand] his and [the] heart of a fool [is] to left [hand] his.
3 Yea also, when he that is a fool walks by the way, his wisdom fails him, and he says to every one that he is a fool.
And also on the way (like when a fool *Q(K)*) [is] going heart his is lacking and he says to everyone [is] a fool he.
4 If the spirit of the ruler rise up against you, leave not your place; for yielding pacifies great offences.
If [the] spirit of the ruler it will go up towards you place your may not you leave for calmness it will cause to rest sins great.
5 There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as an error which proceeds from the ruler:
There [is] an evil [which] I have seen under the sun like an inadvertence that [is] going forth from to before the ruler.
6 Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in low place.
It is put folly in high places many and rich [people] in the low place they sit.
7 I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.
I have seen slaves on horses and princes [who] walk like slaves on the ground.
8 He that digs a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaks an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.
[one who] digs A pit in it he will fall and [one who] breaks through a wall it will bite him a snake.
9 Whoso removes stones shall be hurt therewith; and he that cleaves wood shall be endangered thereby.
[one who] quarries Stones he will be hurt by them [one who] cleaves wood he will be endangered by them.
10 If the iron be blunt, and he do not sharpen the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct.
If it is blunt the iron [axe] and he not faces he has sharpened and strength he will make strong and [is] advantage (to give success *Q(k)*) wisdom.
11 Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is no better.
If it will bite the snake with not charming and there not [is] profit for [the] master of the tongue.
12 The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.
[the] words of [the] mouth of A wise [person] [are] favor and [the] lips of a fool it swallows him.
13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.
[the] beginning of [the] words of Mouth his [is] folly and [the] end of mouth his [is] madness evil.
14 A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?
And the fool he multiplies words not he knows the person what? that will be and which it will be from after him who? will he tell to him.
15 The labour of the foolish wearies every one of them, because he knows not how to go to the city.
[the] toil of Fools it wearies him that not he knows to walk to a city.
16 Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, and your princes eat in the morning!
Woe! to you O land that king your [is] a youth and princes your in the morning they eat.
17 Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, and your princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!
How blessed [are] you O land that king your [is] a son of nobles and princes your at the appropriate time they eat for strength and not for drinking.
18 By much slothfulness the building decays; and through idleness of the hands the house drops through.
In laziness it sinks the rafter[s] and in lowering of hands it leaks the house.
19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine makes merry: but money answers all things.
For laughter [people are] making food and wine it makes glad life and money it answers everything.
20 Curse not the king, no not in your thought; and curse not the rich in your bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which has wings shall tell the matter.
Also in mind your a king may not you curse and in [the] chambers of lying down your may not you curse a rich [person] for bird of the heavens it will carry the sound and an owner (of wings *Q(K)*) it will tell [the] matter.
