Ecclesiastes 2:12-14

New Life Version

The End of the Wise Man or Fool

¹² So I turned to think about wisdom and what is crazy and foolish. For what can the man do who comes after the king, except what has already been done? ¹³ And I saw that wisdom is better than what is foolish, as light is better than darkness. ¹⁴ The wise man’s eyes are in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. Yet I know that one thing will happen to both of them.
