ECCLESIASTES 10:11-15

¹¹If the serpent bite before it be charmed, then is there no advantage in the charmer.

¹²The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.

¹³The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.

¹⁴A fool also multiplieth words: yet man knoweth not what shall be; and that which shall be after him, who can tell him?

¹⁵The labour of fools wearieth every one of them, for he knoweth not how to go to the city.
