King James Version
"For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also he that is born in his kingdom becometh poor."
— Ecclesiastes 4:14, King James Version
“For out of prison he came forth to be king; yea, even in his kingdom he was born poor. ”
“For out of prison he came forth to be king; yes, even in his kingdom he was born poor.”
“For he came out of prison to become king, even though he had been born poor in what would become his kingdom.”
“Because out of prison and chains sometimes a man cometh forth to a kingdom: and another born king is consumed with poverty.”
“Because out of a prison the young man comes to be king, though by birth he was only a poor man in the kingdom.”
“For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also he that is born in his kingdom becometh poor.”
Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?
And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished.
For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also he that is born in his kingdom becometh poor.
I considered all the living which walk under the sun, with the second child that shall stand up in his stead.
There is no end of all the people, even of all that have been before them: they also that come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
