Ecclesiastes 5:7-8
7For in many dreams and in many words there is futility. Rather, 12fear God.
8If you see 3oppression of the poor and 4denial of justice and righteousness in the province, do not be 5shocked at the 6sight; for one 7official watches over another 8official, and there are higher 9officials over them.
