Ecclesiastes 10:16-18

American Standard Version

¹⁶ Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a ^[a]child, and thy princes eat in the morning! ¹⁷ Happy art thou, O land, when thy king is ^[b]the son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness! ¹⁸ By slothfulness the ^[c]roof sinketh in; and through idleness of the hands the house leaketh.
