Ecclesiastes 10:12-14
Christian Standard Bible
12 The words from the mouth of a wise person are gracious,(A)
but the lips of a fool consume him.(B)
13 The beginning of the words from his mouth is folly,
but the end of his speaking is evil madness;
14 yet the fool multiplies words.
No one knows what will happen,
and who can tell anyone what will happen after him?(C)
Ecclesiastes 10:12-14
New International Version
12 Words from the mouth of the wise are gracious,(A)
but fools are consumed by their own lips.(B)
13 At the beginning their words are folly;
at the end they are wicked madness—
14 and fools multiply words.(C)
No one knows what is coming—
who can tell someone else what will happen after them?(D)
