Ecclesiastes 10:14
| ← Ecclesiastes 10:13 | Ecclesiastes 10:14 (KJV) | Ecclesiastes 10:15 → |
|---|---|---|
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?
|
The labour of the foolish wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city.
