Ecclesiastes 10:11-15
11
If the serpent bite before it is charmed, then is there no advantage in the charmer.
12
The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.
13
The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.
14
A fool also multiplieth words: yet man knoweth not what shall be; and that which shall be after him, who can tell him?
15
The labor of fools wearieth every one of them; for he knoweth not how to go to the city.
