Ecclesiastes 10:18-20

¹⁸By slothful neglect a building will be brought low: and by idleness of the hands the house will fall to pieces.

¹⁹Men prepare bread for laughter, and wine and oil that the living should rejoice: but to money all things will humbly yield obedience.

²⁰Even in thy conscience, curse not the king; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry thy voice, and that which has wings shall report thy speech.
