Ecclesiastes 10:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ The labour of fools shall afflict them that know not bow to go to the city.

¹⁶ Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and when the princes eat in the morning.

¹⁷ Blessed is the land, whose king is noble, and whose princes eat in due season for refreshment, and not for riotousness.
