Ecclesiastes 4:13-16

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹³ ¶ Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king who will no longer be admonished.

¹⁴ For he came out of prison to reign, even though he was born poor into his kingdom.

¹⁵ I saw all the living who are under the sun walking with the child, the successor that shall stand up in his stead.

¹⁶ There is no end of all the people that have been before them; those also that come after shall not be content in him. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
