New International Version
Ecclesiastes 7:15-18
15In this meaningless life of mine I have seen both of these: the righteous perishing in their righteousness, and the wicked living long in their wickedness.
16Do not be overrighteous, neither be overwise— why destroy yourself?
17Do not be overwicked, and do not be a fool— why die before your time?
18It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other. Whoever fears God will avoid all extremes.
