=====Ecclesiastes / Prediker 10 ===== ^ [[bijbels:kjv:|Terug naar Bijbel index]] ^ [[bijbels:kjv:tekst:prediker|Terug naar Boek index]] ^ \\ \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-1|1]] Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savour: so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-2|2]] A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-3|3]] Yea also, when he that is a fool walketh by the way, his wisdom faileth him, and he saith to every one that he is a fool. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-4|4]] If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great offences. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-5|5]] There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as an error which proceedeth from the ruler: \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-6|6]] Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in low place. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-7|7]] I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-8|8]] He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-9|9]] Whoso removeth stones shall be hurt therewith; and he that cleaveth wood shall be endangered thereby. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-10|10]] If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-11|11]] Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is no better. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-12|12]] The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-13|13]] The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-14|14]] A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him? \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-15|15]] The labour of the foolish wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-16|16]] Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning! \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-17|17]] Blessed art thou, O land, when thy king is the son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness! \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-18|18]] By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-19|19]] A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things. \\ [[commentaar:prediker10-20|20]] Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter. ^ [[prediker9| vorig hoofdstuk]] ^ [[prediker11|volgend hoofdstuk]] ^
