(From Ecclesiastes 8)
Ecclesiastes 8:1
Who is as the wise man?
And who knoweth the interpretation of a thing?
A man’s wisdom maketh his face to shine,
And the boldness of his face shall be changed.
Ecclesiastes 8:5
Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing:
And a wise man’s heart discerneth both time and judgment.
Ecclesiastes 8:6
Because to every purpose there is time and judgment,
Therefore the misery of man is great upon him.
Ecclesiastes 8:3
Be not hasty to go out of his sight:
Stand not in an evil thing;
for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.
Ecclesiastes 8:4
Where the word of a king is, there is power:
And who may say unto him, what doest thou?
Ecclesiastes 8:2
I counsel thee to keep the king’s commandment,
And that in regard of the oath of God.
Ecclesiastes 8:12
Though a sinner do evil an hundred times,
And his days be prolonged,
Yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God,
Which fear before him.
