Ecclesiastes 7:13-17

¹³Consider the deeds of God: Who can straighten out anything he has made crooked?

¹⁴When times are good, live happily in that good, but when times are bad, consider this: God has allowed both to exist side by side. For this reason, no one will find out anything that is coming after him.

¹⁵I have seen many things in my meaningless days. There are righteous people who perish in spite of their righteousness, and there are wicked people who live a long life in spite of their evil.

¹⁶Do not be self-righteous, wise in your own eyes. Why should you destroy yourself?

¹⁷Do not be too wicked or foolish. Why should you die before your time?
