Ecclesiastes 7:15-17

The Voice

¹⁵ In the fleeting time I have lived on this earth, I have seen just about everything: the good dying in their goodness and the wicked living to a ripe old age. ¹⁶ So my advice? Do not act overly righteous, and do not think yourself wiser than others. Why go and ruin yourself? ¹⁷ But do not be too wicked or foolish either. Why die before it’s your time?
