Ecclesiastes 7:15-17

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁵ Behold the work of God. For who can make straight that which He has made crooked?

¹⁶ In the day of wealth, be of good comfort. And in the day of affliction consider this: God has also made this as opposed to that, so that man would find nothing after Him.

¹⁷ I have seen all things in the days of my vanity. There is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness. And there is a wicked man who continues long in his malice.
