"Wisdom Can Be Nullified By the Caprice of Rulers A wise person’s good sense protects him, but a fool’s lack of sense leaves him vulnerable."
— Ecclesiastes 10:2, NET Bible
“A wise man’s heart is at his right hand; but a fool’s heart at his left.”
“A wise man’s heart is at his right hand; but a fool’s heart at his left. ”
“A wise man's heart is at his right hand, but a fool's heart at his left.”
“The heart of a wise man is in his right hand, and the heart of a fool is in his left hand.”
“The heart of the wise man goes in the right direction; but the heart of a foolish man in the wrong.”
“A wise man’s heart is at his right hand; but a fool’s heart at his left.”
One dead fly makes the perfumer’s ointment give off a rancid stench, so a little folly can outweigh much wisdom.
Wisdom Can Be Nullified By the Caprice of Rulers A wise person’s good sense protects him, but a fool’s lack of sense leaves him vulnerable.
Even when a fool walks along the road he lacks sense, and shows everyone what a fool he is.
If the anger of the ruler flares up against you, do not resign from your position, for a calm response can undo great offenses.
I have seen another misfortune on the earth: It is an error a ruler makes.
