Heard Dave Ramsey's speak about this verse on his show today. I have listed some different translations.

Ramsey mentioned how this could take on a meaning in today's political climate! The "right" and the "left"...........surprised I didn't hear this verse during the elections.


In the Bible: Ecclesiastics: 10:2, is stated "The wise man's heart inclines him to the right, the fool's to the left"

A wise man's heart is at his right hand, but a fool's heart at his left. WEB

A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left. ASV

The heart of the wise man goes in the right direction; but the heart of a foolish man in the wrong. BBE

The heart of a wise man is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left. DBY

A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left. KJV

A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart is at his left. WBS

A wise man's understanding is at his right hand; but a fool's understanding at his left. JPS

The heart of the wise 'is' at his right hand, And the heart of a fool at his left. YLT

What does that mean for all the "left handed" people of the world?

(snort) don't tell my son that!

He came home after bb practice last night and said "this kid had a shirt on that I was a bit offended by" I said really what did it say?

"Lefties do it right, but righties do it better."

I lost it!

Depends on who you ask I guess. My wife might argue against the truthfulness of that statement

Kind of a hard one to tell huh? I would agree with it, though!
