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