Capítulo 9

₁₁ |Eclesiastes 9:11| I have seen something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favour to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all.

₁₂ |Eclesiastes 9:12| Moreover, no man knows when his hour will come: As fish are caught in a cruel net, or birds are taken in a snare, so men are trapped by evil times that fall unexpectedly upon them.

₁₃ |Eclesiastes 9:13| I also saw under the sun this example of wisdom that greatly impressed me:

₁₄ |Eclesiastes 9:14| There was once a small city with only a few people in it. And a powerful king came against it, surrounded it and built huge siegeworks against it.

₁₅ |Eclesiastes 9:15| Now there lived in that city a man poor but wise, and he saved the city by his wisdom. But nobody remembered that poor man.

₁₆ |Eclesiastes 9:16| So I said, “Wisdom is better than strength.” But the poor man’s wisdom is despised, and his words are no longer heeded.

₁₇ |Eclesiastes 9:17| The quiet words of the wise are more to be heeded than the shouts of a ruler of fools.

₁₈ |Eclesiastes 9:18| Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.

Capítulo 10

₁ |Eclesiastes 10:1| As dead flies give perfume a bad smell, so a little folly outweighs wisdom and honour.

₂ |Eclesiastes 10:2| The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.
