Ecclesiastes 7:13-15
13Consider the 1work of God, For who is 2able to straighten what He has bent?143In the day of prosperity be happy, But 4in the day of adversity consider-- God has made the one as well as the other So that man will 5not discover anything that will be after him.
15I have seen everything during my 67lifetime of futility; there is 8a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness and there is 9a wicked man who prolongs his life in his wickedness.
