Ecclesiastes 10:17-20

¹⁷But blessed are you, land, if your king is the son of nobles, and if your leaders eat at the right time, for strength, and not for drunkenness!

¹⁸Because of laziness the roof sinks in, and because of idle hands the house leaks.

¹⁹People prepare food for laughter, wine brings enjoyment to life, and money fills the need for everything.

²⁰Do not curse the king, not even in your mind, and do not curse rich people in your bedroom. For a bird of the sky might carry your words; whatever has wings can spread the matter.
