Ecclesiastes 8:2-7

²I keep the mouth of the king, and the commandments and the swearings of God. (I counsel, (or advise), thee to obey the king’s commands, and to keep your oath, (or your pledge), to God.)

³Haste thou not to go away from his face, and dwell thou not in evil work. For he shall do all thing, that he will, (or For he shall do anything, that he desireth);

⁴and his word is full of power, and no man may say to him (or and no one can say to him), Why doest thou so?

⁵He that keepeth the commandment of God, shall not feel anything of evil; the heart of a wise man understandeth time and answer.

⁶Time and season is to each work; and much torment is of a man,

⁷for he knoweth not the things passed, and he may not know by any messenger the things to come.
