Eclesiastes 10:14

14 Embora o tolo fale sem parar,ninguém sabe o que está para vir;quem poderá dizer a outrem o que lhe acontecerá depois?

Eclesiastes 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.

Eclesiastes 10:14 In-Context

12 As palavras do sábio lhe trazem benefícios,mas os lábios do insensato o destroem.
13 No início as suas palavras são mera tolice,mas no final são loucura perversa.
14 Embora o tolo fale sem parar,ninguém sabe o que está para vir;quem poderá dizer a outrem o que lhe acontecerá depois?
15 O trabalho do tolo o deixa tão exaustoque ele nem consegue achar o caminho de casa.
16 Pobre da terra cujo rei é jovem demaise cujos líderes fazem banquetes logo de manhã.
