New International Reader's Version

Ecclesiastes 4:13-15 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

13. A poor but wise young man is better off than an old but foolish king. That king doesn't pay attention to a warning anymore.

14. The young man might have come from prison to become king. Or he might have been born poor within the kingdom but still became king.

15. I saw that everyone was following the young man who had become the new king.
