Ecclesiastes 10:4-7

⁴If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, Leave not thy place; For soothing will put an end to great offenses.

⁵There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, Wherein an error has proceeded from the ruler.

⁶The fool has been set in very high places, While rich men would sit in a low one.

⁷I have seen servants upon horses, And princes walking as servants on the earth.
