[ (Ecclesiastes 9:19) A bölcseknek nyugodt beszédét inkább meghallgatják, mint a bolondok közt uralkodónak kiáltását. ] [ (Ecclesiastes 9:20) Jobb a bölcsesség a hadakozó szerszámoknál; és egy bûnös sok jót veszt el. ] [ (Ecclesiastes 9:21) A megholt legyek a patikáriusnak kenetit megbüdösítik, megerjesztik; [azonképen] hathatósabb a bölcseségnél, tisztességnél egy kicsiny balgatagság. ] [ (Ecclesiastes 9:22) A bölcs embernek szíve az õ jobbkezénél [van;] a bolondnak pedig szíve balkezénél. ] [ (Ecclesiastes 9:23) A bolond, mikor az úton jár is, az õ elméje hiányos, és mindennek hirdeti, hogy õ bolond. ]
