Ecclesiastes 10:19


Ecclesiastes 10:18 Ecclesiastes 10:19 (KJV) Ecclesiastes 10:20
By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through.
A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all [things].
Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.
