ט֛וֹב יֶ֥לֶד מִסְכֵּ֖ן וְחָכָ֑ם מִמֶּ֤לֶךְ זָקֵן֙ וּכְסִ֔יל אֲשֶׁ֛ר לֹא־יָדַ֥ע לְהִזָּהֵ֖ר עֽוֹד׃
Mieux vaut un jeune homme pauvre, mais intelligent, qu’un roi vieux et stupide, incapable même d’accueillir encore des conseils.
Genesis
Is this not so—if you improve, there is forgiveness, but if you do not improve, sin rests at the opening. Its desire is unto you, but you can dominate it.
Ecclesiastes
I have seen all the living who walk under the sun with the second child, which arises after him.
