Ecclesiastes 10:4-7 (King James Version)

 ⁴If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great offences.

 ⁵There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as an error which proceedeth from the ruler:

 ⁶Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in low place.

 ⁷I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.
