Ecclesiastes 7:15-18

¹⁵I have seen all things in the days of my vanity: there is a just man perishing in his justice, and there is an ungodly man remaining in his wickedness.

¹⁶Be not very just; neither be very wise: lest thou be confounded.

¹⁷Be not very wicked; and be not stubborn: lest thou shouldest die before thy time.

¹⁸It is well for thee to hold fast by this; also by this defile not thine hand: for to them that fear God all things shall come forth well.
