Eclesiastés 4

Better is a child that is poor and wise, than a king that is old and foolish, who knoweth not to foresee for hereafter.

Mejor es el muchacho pobre y sabio, que el rey viejo y fatuo que no sabe ser aconsejado.

Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished.

Better is a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king who doesn’t know how to receive admonition any more.
