Therefore, no one can discover anything about their future. | In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider: God has made the one as well as the other, so that man may not find out anything that will be after him. |
Words from the mouth of the wise are gracious, but fools are consumed by their own lips. | The words of a wise man's mouth win him favor, but the lips of a fool consume him. |
