Ecclesiastes 10:13-15
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
13 The words of their mouths begin in foolishness,
and their talk ends in wicked madness;
14 yet fools talk on and on.
No one knows what is to happen,
and who can tell anyone what the future holds?
15 The toil of fools wears them out,
for they do not even know the way to town.
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.
