Ecclesiastes 10:13-17 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

13. The beginning of the words of his mouth is folly; and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.

14. And the fool multiplieth words: yet man knoweth not what shall be; and what shall be after him, who will tell him?

15. The labour of fools wearieth them, because they know not how to go to the city.

16. Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning!

17. Happy art thou, O land, when thy king is a son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!
