Ecclesiastes 4:13-15

Amplified Bible

¹³ A poor yet wise youth is better than an old and foolish king who ^[a]no longer knows how to receive instruction and counsel (friendly reproof, warning)— ¹⁴ for the poor youth has [used his wisdom and] come out of prison to become king, even though he was born poor in his kingdom. ¹⁵ I have seen all the living under the sun join with the second youth (the king’s acknowledged successor) who replaces him.
