13See the work of God, For who is able to make straight that which He made crooked?
14In a day of prosperity be in gladness, And in a day of evil consider. Also this over-against that hath God made, To the intent that man doth not find anything after him.
15The whole I have considered in the days of my vanity. There is a righteous one perishing in his righteousness, and there is a wrong-doer prolonging [himself] in his wrong.
16Be not over-righteous, nor show thyself too wise, why art thou desolate?
17Do not much wrong, neither be thou a fool, why dost thou die within thy time?
18[It is] good that thou dost lay hold on this, and also, from that withdrawest not thy hand, for whoso is fearing God goeth out with them all.
19The wisdom giveth strength to a wise man, more than wealth the rulers who have been in a city.
