'Person' in the Bible
I have seen that there is nothing better than for a person to enjoy his activities because that is his reward. For who can enable him to see what will happen after he dies?
There is a person without a companion, without even a son or brother, and though there is no end to all his struggles, his eyes are still not content with riches. “So who am I struggling for,” he asks, “and depriving myself from good?” This too is futile and a miserable task.
Also, if two lie down together, they can keep warm; but how can one person alone keep warm?
And if someone overpowers one person, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not easily broken.
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?
It is better to listen to rebuke from a wise personthan to listen to the song of fools,
Surely, the practice of extortion turns a wise person into a fool,and a bribe destroys the mind.
Who is like the wise person, and who knows the interpretation of a matter? A man’s wisdom brightens his face, and the sternness of his face is changed.
Do not curse the king even in your thoughts,and do not curse a rich person even in your bedroom,for a bird of the sky may carry the message,and a winged creature may report the matter.
