ABP - Ecclesiastes - 10

10:1  A fly put to death will rot a concoction [2oil 1of lucious]; [3is valuable 1A little 2wisdom] over [2glory 3of folly 1great].

10:2  A heart of a wise man is at his right hand; and the heart of a fool is at his left.

10:3  And indeed [4in the way 1whenever 2a fool 3goes] of his heart, he will fail, and [2which he considers 1all] is folly.

10:4  If spirit of the one exercising authority should ascend against you, [3your place 1you should not 2leave]; for a cure will put to rest [2sins 1great].

10:5  There is a wickedness which I beheld under the sun, as an unintentional act came forth from the person of one exercising authority.

10:6  [3was put 1The 2fool] in [2heights 1great], and the rich [2in 3low 1shall settle].

10:7  I beheld servants upon horses, and rulers going as servants upon the ground.

10:8  The one digging a cesspool [2into 3it 1shall fall]; and the one demolishing a fence boundary, [2shall bite 3him 1a serpent].

10:9  One lifting away stones shall work hard among them; one splitting wood shall be exposed to danger in them.

10:10  If [2should fall off 1an iron implement], and he [2in countenance 1is disturbed], then [2his power 1he shall strengthen], and abundance is to the man of which is wisdom.

10:11  If [3should bite 1the 2serpent] with no enchanter whispering, then there is no advantage to the one charming.

10:12  The words [2mouth 1of a wise] carry favor; but the lips of a fool shall sink him;

10:13  the beginning of the words of his mouth are folly, and the end of his mouth [2madness 1is wicked].

10:14  And the fool multiplies words. [2does not 3know 1Man] what the thing becoming is, and what the thing will be; for after him who shall announce to him?

10:15  The effort of the fools shall trouble them as one who does not know how to go into the city.

10:16  Woe to you, O city, of which your king is younger, and your rulers [2in 3the morning 1eat].

10:17  Blessed is your land of which your king is a son of free nobles, and your rulers at a proper time shall eat in force, and shall not be ashamed.

10:18  By slothful neglect [2will be lowered 1a building]; and in idleness of hands [3will drip 1the 2house].

10:19  For laughter they make bread, and wine and olive oil [2to be glad 1for the living]; and of the money all will heed.

10:20  And indeed in your conscience [2a king 1you should not curse]; and in the closets of your bedrooms you should not curse a rich man. For a winged creature of heaven shall carry your voice, and the one having the wings shall report your word.
