9Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.
10Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not inquire wisely concerning this.
11Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun.
12For wisdom is a defense, and money is a defense: but the excellence of knowledge is , that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.
13Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked?
14In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: God also hath set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.
15All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness.
16Be not righteous over much; neither make thyself over wise: why shouldst thou destroy thyself?
17Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldst thou die before thy time?
18It is good that thou shouldst take hold of this; yes, also from this withdraw not thy hand: for he that feareth God shall escape from them all.
19Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men who are in the city.
20For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.
21Also take no heed to all words that are spoken; lest thou hear thy servant curse thee:
22For often also thy own heart knoweth that thou thyself likewise hast cursed others.
23All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me.
24That which is far off, and exceedingly deep, who can find it out?
