Ecclesiastes 10:5-7
International Children’s Bible

5 Here is something else unfair that happens here on earth.
    It is the kind of mistake rulers make:
6 Foolish people are given important positions
    while rich people are given less important ones.
7 I have seen servants ride on horses
    while princes walk beside them on foot.

6 Fools are put in many high positions,(A)
    while the rich occupy the low ones.
7 I have seen slaves on horseback,
    while princes go on foot like slaves.(B)
