Nadie sabe a ciencia cierta qué es lo que va a suceder,
nadie puede predecir el futuro.

Eclesiastés 10:14 Meaning and Commentary

Ecclesiastes 10:14

A fool also is full of words
Or, "multiplies words" ^F25. Is very talkative, says the same thing over and over again; uses an abundance of waste words, that have no meaning in them; utters every thing that comes uppermost, without any order or judgment; affects to talk on every subject, whether he knows anything of it or not; and will engross all the conversation to himself, though of all in company the most unfit for it; a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him who can
tell him?
what the fool is talking of; what is the drift of his discourse; or where it will end, and what he will bring it to, it is so noisy, confused, and incoherent: or no man can tell future things, or what will come to pass; nor can any man inform another of future events; and yet a fool boasts and brags of what he shall do, and what he shall have, as if he was master of the future, and knew for certain what would come to pass, which the wisest of men do not.

Eclesiastés 10:14 In-Context

12 Las palabras sabias traen aprobación,
pero a los necios, sus propias palabras los destruyen.

13 Los necios basan sus pensamientos en suposiciones insensatas,
por lo tanto, llegan a conclusiones locas y malvadas;

14 hablan y hablan sin parar.
Nadie sabe a ciencia cierta qué es lo que va a suceder,
nadie puede predecir el futuro.

15 Los necios se agotan tanto con un poco de trabajo
que ni siquiera saben cómo regresar a su casa.

16 ¡Qué tristeza sufrirá el pueblo gobernado por un sirviente,
cuyos líderes hacen fiesta desde la mañana!
