Ecclesiastes 10:7-9
EasyEnglish Bible

7 Slaves ride on horses, as important people do.
    At the same time, princes have to walk, as slaves do.

8 If you dig a deep hole, you might fall into it.
    If you knock down a wall, a snake might bite you.
9 If you cut stones out of the ground, a stone might hurt you.
    If you cut wood into pieces, a piece of it might hurt you.
