14 A fool also is full of words; a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?

19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry; but money answereth all things.
20 Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber; for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.
