Ecclesiastes 10:9-11
Revised Standard Version
Ecclesiastes 10:9-11
Revised Standard Version
9 He who quarries stones is hurt by them;
and he who splits logs is endangered by them.
10 If the iron is blunt, and one does not whet the edge,
he must put forth more strength;
but wisdom helps one to succeed.
11 If the serpent bites before it is charmed,
there is no advantage in a charmer.
