Ecclesiastes 10:15-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

15 The toil of fools wears them out,
    for they do not even know the way to town.

16 Alas for you, O land, when your king is a child
    and your princes feast in the morning!(A)
17 Happy are you, O land, when your king is a nobleman,
    and your princes feast at the proper time—
    for strength and not for drunkenness!(B)
