Ecclesiastes 10:13


Ecclesiastes 10:12 Ecclesiastes 10:13 (KJV) Ecclesiastes 10:14
The words of a wise man's mouth [are] gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.
The beginning of the words of his mouth [is] foolishness: and the end of his talk [is] mischievous madness.
A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?
