< Ecclesiastes 10 >
1 [A few] dead flies in [a bottle of] perfume cause [all] the perfume to stink. Similarly [SIM], a small amount of acting foolishly can have a greater effect than acting wisely.
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 If people think sensibly, it will lead them to do what is right; if they think foolishly, it causes them to do what is wrong.
[the] heart of A wise [person] [is] to right [hand] his and [the] heart of a fool [is] to left [hand] his.
3 Even while foolish people walk along the road, they show that they do not have good sense; they show everyone that they are not wise.
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 Do not quit working for a ruler when he is angry with you; if you remain calm, he will [probably] stop being angry.
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 something [else] that I have seen here on this earth, something that rulers sometimes do that is wrong/inappropriate:
There [is] an evil [which] I have seen under the sun like an inadvertence that [is] going forth from to before the ruler.
6 They appoint foolish people to have important positions, while they appoint rich [people] to have unimportant positions.
It is put folly in high places many and rich [people] in the low place they sit.
7 They allow slaves [to ride] on horses [like rich people usually do], [but] they force officials to walk [like slaves usually do].
I have seen slaves on horses and princes [who] walk like slaves on the ground.
8 [It is possible that] those who dig pits will fall into one of those pits. [It is possible that] someone who tears down a wall will be bitten by a snake [that is in that wall].
[one who] digs A pit in it he will fall and [one who] breaks through a wall it will bite him a snake.
9 If you work in a quarry, [it is possible that] a stone [will fall on you and] injure you. [It is possible that] men who split logs will be injured by one of those logs.
[one who] quarries Stones he will be hurt by them [one who] cleaves wood he will be endangered by them.
10 If your axe is not sharp [DOU], you will need to work harder [to cut down a tree], but by being wise, you will succeed.
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 If a snake bites a man before he charms/tames it, his ability to charm snakes will not benefit him.
If it will bite the snake with not charming and there not [is] profit for [the] master of the tongue.
12 Wise people say [MTY] what is sensible, and because of that, people honor them; but foolish people are destroyed by what they say [MTY].
[the] words of [the] mouth of A wise [person] [are] favor and [the] lips of a fool it swallows him.
13 When foolish people start to talk, they say things that are foolish, and they end by saying things that are both wicked and foolish.
[the] beginning of [the] words of Mouth his [is] folly and [the] end of mouth his [is] madness evil.
14 They talk (too much/without ceasing). None of us knows what will happen in the future, or what will happen after we die.
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 Foolish people become [so] exhausted by the work that they do that they are unable to find the road to their town/homes.
[the] toil of Fools it wearies him that not he knows to walk to a city.
16 Terrible things will happen to the people of a nation whose ruler is a foolish young man, and whose [other] leaders continually eat, all day long, every day.
Woe! to you O land that king your [is] a youth and princes your in the morning they eat.
17 [But] a nation will prosper if its ruler is from a (noble/well-educated) family, and if its [other] leaders feast [only] at the proper times, and [if they eat and drink only] to be strong, not to become drunk.
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 Some men are very lazy [and do not repair the rafters], with the result that the rafters sag [and collapse]; and if they do not repair the roof, water will leak into the house [when it rains].
In laziness it sinks the rafter[s] and in lowering of hands it leaks the house.
19 Eating food and drinking wine causes us to laugh and be happy, [but] we are able to enjoy those things only if we have money [to buy them].
For laughter [people are] making food and wine it makes glad life and money it answers everything.
20 Do not even think about cursing the king, or cursing rich [people, even] when you are [alone] in your bedroom, because [it is possible that] a little bird will hear [what you are saying], [and] tell those people what you said [about them].
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.
