Ecclesiastes 10:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² Wise people say gracious things.
    But foolish people are destroyed by what their own lips speak.
¹³ At first what they say is foolish.
    In the end their words are very evil.
¹⁴     They talk too much.

No one knows what lies ahead.
    Who can tell someone else what will happen after they are gone?
