Ecclesiastes 10:7 In-Context

5 There is a tragedy that I've seen under the sun, an error often made by rulers.
6 Foolish people are often given high positions, and rich people are left to fill lower positions.
7 I have seen slaves sitting on horses and influential people going on foot like slaves.
8 Whoever digs a pit may fall into it. Whoever breaks through a stone wall may be bitten by a snake.
9 Whoever works in a stone quarry may get hurt. Whoever splits wood may be injured.
