Ecclesiastes 10:17-19
English Standard Version
17 Happy are you, O land, when your king is the son of the nobility,
and your princes feast at the proper time,
for strength, and not for (A)drunkenness!
18 Through sloth the roof sinks in,
and through indolence the house leaks.
19 Bread is made for laughter,
and (B)wine gladdens life,
and (C)money answers everything.
