Ecclesiastes 10:12-14
World English Bible
12 The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious; but a fool is swallowed by his own lips. 13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; and the end of his talk is mischievous madness. 14 A fool also multiplies words.
Man doesn’t know what will be; and that which will be after him, who can tell him?

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—

No one knows what is coming—
who can tell someone else what will happen after them?(D)
