Ecclesiastes 10:17-19

¹⁷But a nation will prosper if its ruler is from a ◄noble/well-educated► family, and if its other leaders feast only at the proper times, and if they eat and drink only to be strong, not to become drunk.

¹⁸Some men are very lazy and do not repair the rafters, with the result that the rafters sag and collapse; and if they do not repair the roof, water will leak into the house when it rains.

¹⁹Eating food and drinking wine causes us to laugh and be happy, but we are able to enjoy those things only if we have money to buy them.
