Ecclesiastes 2:13 - Võrdle kõiki versioone

Jaga

I saw that wisdom is better than folly, just as light is better than darkness.

Then I saw that there is more gain in wisdom than in folly, as there is more gain in light than in darkness.

I thought, “Wisdom is better than foolishness, just as light is better than darkness.

And I realized that there is an advantage to wisdom over folly, like the advantage of light over darkness.

Then I saw that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth darkness.

Then I saw that wisdom excels folly As light excels darkness.

And then I took a hard look at what’s smart and what’s stupid. What’s left to do after you’ve been king? That’s a hard act to follow. You just do what you can, and that’s it. But I did see that it’s better to be smart than stupid, just as light is better than darkness. Even so, though the smart ones see where they’re going and the stupid ones grope in the dark, they’re all the same in the end. One fate for all—and that’s it.

Then I saw that wisdom surpasses foolishness as light surpasses darkness.

Then I saw that [even secular] wisdom [that brings sorrow] is better than [the pleasures of] folly and self-indulgence as light excels darkness.

I realized that wisdom is preferable to folly, just as light is preferable to darkness
