9 And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yes, he pondered and sought out and aset in order many proverbs.
10 The Preacher sought to find1 acceptable words; and what was written was upright—words of truth.
11 The words of the wise are like goads, and the words of1 scholars are like well-driven nails, given by one Shepherd.
