Ecclesiastes 10:4-14 - ESV - If the anger of the ruler rises against you, do...

4 If the anger of the ruler rises against you, ¹do not leave your place, ²for calmness^a will lay great offenses to rest.

5 There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, as it were ³an error proceeding from the ruler:

6 ⁴folly is set in many high places, and the rich sit in a low place.

7 ⁵I have seen slaves ⁶on horses, and princes walking on the ground like slaves.

8 He who ⁷digs a pit will fall into it, and ⁸a serpent will bite him who breaks through a wall.

9 ⁹He who quarries stones is hurt by them, and he who ¹⁰splits 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.^b

11 If the serpent bites before it is ¹¹charmed, there is no advantage to the charmer.

12 The words of a wise man's mouth ¹²win him favor,^c but ¹³the lips of a fool consume him.

13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness, and the end of his talk is evil madness.

14 ¹⁴A fool multiplies words, though no man knows what is to be, and who can tell him ¹⁵what will be after him?

Eclesiastés 10:4 Si la ira del gobernante se levanta contra ti, no abandones tu puesto, porque la serenidad suaviza grandes ofensas.

4 Si el espíritu del señor se exaltare contra ti, no dejes tu lugar; porque la mansedumbre hará reposar grandes pecados

4 If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great offences.

4 If the spirit of the ruler rises against you, Do not leave your post; For conciliation pacifies great offenses.

Eclesiastés 10:4 Si tu jefe se enoja contigo, ¡no renuncies a tu puesto!
Un espíritu sereno puede superar grandes errores.

4 Si el ánimo del gobernante se exalta contra ti, no abandones tu puesto. La paciencia es el remedio para los grandes errores.

4 Si el espíritu del príncipe se exaltare contra ti, no dejes tu lugar; porque la lenidad hará cesar grandes ofensas.

4 Si el espíritu del señor se exaltare contra ti, no dejes tu lugar; porque la mansedumbre hará reposar grandes pecados.
