New Testament

Ecclesiastes 10:6-10 New Living Translation (NLT)

6. when they give great authority to foolish people and low positions to people of proven worth.

7. I have even seen servants riding horseback like princes—and princes walking like servants!

8. When you dig a well,you might fall in.When you demolish an old wall,you could be bitten by a snake.

9. When you work in a quarry,stones might fall and crush you.When you chop wood,there is danger with each stroke of your ax.

10. Using a dull ax requires great strength,so sharpen the blade.That’s the value of wisdom;it helps you succeed.
