Ecclesiastes 7:14-16

Common English Bible

¹⁴ When times are good, enjoy the good; when times are bad, consider: God has made the former as well as the latter so that people can’t discover anything that will come to be after them.

¹⁵ I have seen everything in my pointless lifetime: the righteous person may die in spite of their righteousness; then again, the wicked may live long in spite of their wickedness. ¹⁶ Don’t be too righteous or too wise, or you may be dumbfounded.^[a]
