Ecclesiastes 7:4-6
The Message
Ecclesiastes 7:4-6
The Message
4 Sages invest themselves in hurt and grieving.
Fools waste their lives in fun and games.
5 You’ll get more from the rebuke of a sage
Than from the song and dance of fools.
6 The giggles of fools are like the crackling of twigs
Under the cooking pot. And like smoke.
The Message (MSG)
