11 The more the words,

the less the meaning,

and how does that profit anyone?

11 Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?

11 The more words you speak, the less they mean. So what good are they?

11 Since there are many things that increase vanity,

How is man the better?

11 The more you say,

the more useless it is.

What good does it do?

11 Seeing there are many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?

11 For there are many things that increase vanity: what is man advantaged?

11 The more words there are, the more pointless they become. What advantage do mortals gain from this?

11 For when there are many words, they increase futility. What is the advantage for man?

11 The more words, the more vanity, so how is one the better?

11 Increasing words only multiplies futility,

how does that profit anyone?

11 The more words people use,

the less meaning there is.

And that doesn’t help anyone.

11 For there are many words which increase futility. What then is the advantage to a man?
