13Consider the work of God; for who can make straight what he hath made crooked?
14In the day of prosperity enjoy good, and in the day of adversity consider: God hath also set the one beside the other, to the end that man should find out nothing of what shall be after him.
15All this have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a righteous man that perisheth by his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his days by his wickedness.
16Be not righteous overmuch; neither make thyself overwise: why shouldest thou destroy thyself?
