Eclesiastés 10

Se alguém colocar moscas mortas num vidro de perfume, estraga o perfume; assim, um pouco de tolice pode destruir muita sabedoria e honra.

LAS moscas muertas hacen heder y dar mal olor el perfume del perfumista: así una pequeña locura, al estimado por sabiduría y honra.

Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savour: so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour.

Dead flies cause the oil of the perfumer to produce an evil odor; so does a little folly outweigh wisdom and honor.
