gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ As dead flies cause the perfumer's ointment to stink and ferment; so a little foolishness is heavier than wisdom and than honor.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:2 @ The heart of the wise is toward his right, but the fool's heart toward his left.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ And also, in the way in which a stupid one walks, his heart fails, and he says to all that he is a fool.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:4 @ If the spirit of the ruler rises up against you, do not leave your place; for composure quiets great offenses.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @ There is an evil I have seen under the sun, sins which come from the face of the ruler:
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:6 @ folly is set in many high positions, and many rich men sit in low situations.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:7 @ I have seen slaves on horses, and rulers walking as slaves on the earth.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:8 @ He who digs a pit may fall into it; and one breaking a wall, a snake may bite him.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ Whoever removes stones may be hurt with them; he who splits trees may be endangered by them.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the iron is blunt, and he does not whet the mouths, then he must put more strength to it. But wisdom is an advantage giving success.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:11 @ If the snake will bite without charming, then there is no advantage to a master of tongue.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:12 @ The words of a wise mouth are grace, but the lips of a stupid one swallow him;
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:13 @ the beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; and the end of his mouth is evil madness.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:14 @ Yet the stupid one makes many words; a man knows not what they shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:15 @ The labor of fools wearies him, because he does not know how to go to the city.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:16 @ Woe to you, O land, when your king is a boy, and your leaders eat in the morning.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, and your leaders eat in due time, in strength, and not in drinking.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:18 @ The framework tumbles through indolence; and through lowering of hands, the house leaks.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:19 @ Bread is made for laughter, and wine gladdens life; but silver answers all things.
gltv@Ecclesiastes:10:20 @ Also, do not curse a king in your thought; and do not curse the rich in your bedrooms; for a bird of the heavens may carry the voice; yea, the lord of wings may tell the matter.
