Ecclesiastes 10:13-15
The Message

12-13 The words of a wise person are gracious.
The talk of a fool self-destructs—
He starts out talking nonsense
And ends up spouting insanity and evil.

14 Fools talk way too much,
Chattering stuff they know nothing about.

15 A decent day’s work so fatigues fools
That they can’t find their way back to town.
