English Standard Version
Ecclesiastes 8:2-5
2I say: Keep the king's command, because of God's oath to him.
3Be not hasty to go from his presence. Do not take your stand in an evil cause, for he does whatever he pleases.
4For the word of the king is supreme, and who may say to him, "What are you doing?"
5Whoever keeps a command will know no evil thing, and the wise heart will know the proper time and the just way.
