Ecclesiastes 5:7-8
7For in many dreams and in many words there is 1emptiness. Rather, 23fear God.
8If you see 4oppression of the poor and 5denial of justice and righteousness in the province, do not be 6shocked at the 7sight; for one 8official watches over another 9official, and there are higher 10officials over them.
