Ecclesiastes 10:17-20

¹⁷Happy art thou, O land, When thy king is a son of freemen, And thy princes do eat in due season, For might, and not for drunkenness.

¹⁸By slothfulness is the wall brought low, And by idleness of the hands doth the house drop.

¹⁹For mirth they are making a feast, And wine maketh life joyful, And the silver answereth with all.

²⁰Even in thy mind a king revile not, And in the inner parts of thy bed-chamber Revile not the rich: For a fowl of the heavens causeth the voice to go, And a possessor of wings declareth the word.
