And a multitude of years should teach wisdom.

and many years should teach wisdom.

7I said, Days should speak,

And multitude of years should teach wisdom.

7For I said, The dayes shall speake, and the multitude of yeeres shall teach wisedome.

and multitude of years should teach wisdom.’

7I thought, ‘Those who are older should speak first.

Those who have lived for many years

should teach people how to be wise.’

They have lived for many years and they should share their wisdom.”
