9 Bible Verses about Wise Man Or Fool

And who knows whether he will be a wise man or a fool? Yet he will take over all my work that I labored at skillfully under the sun. This too is futile.

What advantage then does the wise man have over the fool? What advantage is there for the poor person who knows how to conduct himself before others?

So I said to myself, “What happens to the fool will also happen to me. Why then have I been overly wise?” And I said to myself that this is also futile.

For, just like the fool, there is no lasting remembrance of the wise man, since in the days to come both will be forgotten. How is it that the wise man dies just like the fool?

For one can see that wise men die;
foolish and stupid men also pass away.
Then they leave their wealth to others.

It is better to listen to rebuke from a wise person
than to listen to the song of fools,

Claiming to be wise, they became fools

Instead, God has chosen what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen what is weak in the world to shame the strong.

I am obligated both to Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and the foolish.
