Ecclesiastes 10:16

14 ^aA fool also multiplies words.
No man knows what is to be;
Who can tell him ^bwhat will be after him?

15 The labor of fools wearies them,
For they do not even know how to go to the city!

16 ^aWoe to you, O land, when your king is a child,
And your princes feast in the morning!

17 Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles,
And your ^aprinces feast at the proper time—
For strength and not for drunkenness!

18 Because of laziness the¹ building decays,
And ^athrough idleness of hands the house leaks.

19 A feast is made for laughter,
And ^awine makes merry;
But money answers everything.
