Ecclesiastes 10:9-10
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 10
9
One who quarries stones may be hurt by them, and one who splits logs may be endangered by them.
10
If the axe is dull and he does not sharpen
its
edge, then he must exert
more
strength. Wisdom
has
the advantage of bringing success.
King James Version
Chapter 10
9
Whoso removeth stones shall be hurt therewith;
and
he that cleaveth wood shall be endangered thereby.
10
If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom
is
profitable to direct.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 10
9
The one who quarries stones may be hurt by them; the one who splits logs may be endangered by them.
10
If the ax is dull, and one does not sharpen its edge, then one must exert more strength; however, the advantage of wisdom is that it brings success.
New Living Translation
Chapter 10
9
When you work in a quarry,
stones might fall and crush you.
When you chop wood,
there is danger with each stroke of your ax.
10
Using a dull ax requires great strength,
so sharpen the blade.
That’s the value of wisdom;
it helps you succeed.
English Standard Version
Chapter 10
9
He who quarries stones is hurt by them, and he who splits logs is endangered by them.
10
If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge, he must use more strength, but wisdom helps one to succeed.
New International Version
Chapter 10
9
Whoever quarries stones may be injured by them; whoever splits logs may be endangered by them.
10
If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed, but skill will bring success.
New King James Version
Chapter 10
9
He who quarries stones may be hurt by them,
And
he who splits wood may be endangered by it.
10
If the ax is dull,
And one does not sharpen the edge,
Then he must use more strength;
But wisdom brings success.
