כִּ֣י כְק֤וֹל הַסִּירִים֙ תַּ֣חַת הַסִּ֔יר כֵּ֖ן שְׂחֹ֣ק הַכְּסִ֑יל וְגַם־זֶ֖ה הָֽבֶל׃
Sebab seperti derak duri di bawah dandang, demikianlah tawa orang bebal; ini pun kesia-siaan.
Ecclesiastes
For the taunting [of the fool] confounds the sage and destroys the bestowed heart [i.e., the gift of understanding bestowed upon a man].
Ecclesiastes
Goodly is wisdom (together) with [the] inheritance [of the fathers], and an advantage to the seers of the sun [i.e., to all the creation].
Ecclesiastes
For [whoever is] in the shadow of wisdom (is) in the shadow of silver. And [a further] advantage of knowledge [over silver] is that wisdom gives life to its possessors.
