The Fool’s End

Ecclesiastes 10:18-20

¹⁸ Through indolence the rafters sag, and through slackness the house leaks. ¹⁹ Men prepare a meal for enjoyment, and wine makes life merry, and money is the answer to everything. ²⁰ Furthermore, in your bedchamber do not curse a king, and in your sleeping rooms do not curse a rich man, for a bird of the heavens will carry the sound and the winged creature will make the matter known.
