Ecclesiastes 10:13-15
American Standard Version
13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; and the end of [a]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.

Ecclesiastes 10:13-15
New International Version
13 At the beginning their words are folly;
at the end they are wicked madness—
14 and fools multiply words.(A)
No one knows what is coming—
who can tell someone else what will happen after them?(B)
15 The toil of fools wearies them;
they do not know the way to town.
