13 Then I saw that there is more gain in wisdom than in folly, as there is more gain in light than in darkness.
13 I saw that wisdom is better than folly, just as light is better than darkness.
14 The wise person has his eyes in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. And yet I perceived that the same event happens to all of them.
14 The wise have eyes in their heads, while the fool walks in the darkness; but I came to realize that the same fate overtakes them both.
