14 and fools multiply words.

No one knows what is coming—

who can tell someone else what will happen after them?

14 A fool multiplies words,

though no man knows what is to be,

and who can tell him what will be after him?

14 A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?

14 they chatter on and on.

No one really knows what is going to happen;

no one can predict the future.

14 A fool talks too much.

No one knows the future,

and no one can tell what will happen after death.

14 A fool also multiplieth words: yet man knoweth not what shall be; and that which shall be after him, who can tell him?

14 And the fool multiplieth words: yet man knoweth not what shall be; and what shall be after him, who will tell him?

14 He never stops talking. No one knows what the future will bring, or what will happen after ⸤death⸥. Who can say!

14 Yet the fool multiplies words.

No one knows what will happen,

and who can tell anyone what will happen after him?

14 yet fools talk on and on.

No one knows what is to happen,

and who can tell anyone what the future holds?

14 The fool talks too much,

for no one knows what will be.

Who can tell anyone what will happen in the future?

14 He talks too much.

No one knows what lies ahead for him.

Who can tell him what will happen after he is gone?

14 Yet the fool multiplies words. No man knows what will happen, and who can tell him what will come after him?
