Epilogue
9 Besides being wise, the Teacher[a] also taught the people knowledge, weighing and studying and arranging many proverbs. 10 The Teacher[b] sought to find pleasing words, and he wrote words of truth plainly.
11 The sayings of the wise are like goads, and like nails firmly fixed are the collected sayings that are given by one shepherd.[c]
