Ecclesiastes 10:11

11 If a snake bites before it is charmed,

the charmer receives no fee.

11 Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is no better.

11 If a snake bites before you charm it,

what’s the use of being a snake charmer?

11 A serpent may bite when it is not charmed;

The babbler is no different.

11 If a snake bites the tamer before it is tamed,

what good is the tamer?

11 If the serpent bite before it is charmed, then is there no advantage in the charmer.

11 If the serpent bite before enchantment, then the charmer hath no advantage.

11 If a snake bites before it has been charmed, then there is no advantage in being a snake charmer. 

11 If the snake bites before it is charmed,

then there is no advantage for the charmer.

11 If the snake bites before it is charmed,

there is no advantage in a charmer.

11 If the snake bites before the charming,

the snake charmer will not succeed.

11 Suppose a snake bites before it is charmed.

Then there isn’t any benefit in being a snake charmer.

11 If the serpent bites before being charmed, there is no profit for the charmer.
