Ecclesiastes 10:9-11
New American Standard Bible
9 One who quarries stones may be hurt by them, and one who splits logs may be endangered by them. 10 If the [a]axe is dull and he does not sharpen its [b]edge, then he must exert more strength. Wisdom has the advantage of bringing success. 11 If the serpent bites [c](A)before being charmed, there is no benefit for the charmer.
