Ecclesiastes 10:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ I have seen another terrible thing that happens on the earth.
    It happens when a ruler does a silly thing.
⁶ A ruler may give fools too much authority.
    At the same time, rich people have no authority.
⁷ Slaves ride on horses, as important people do.
    At the same time, princes have to walk, as slaves do.
