Kohelet 7:12-14

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹² For chochmah is a protective tzel (shade), and kesef is as well; but the advantage of da’as is, that chochmah giveth chayyim (life) to them that possess it.

¹³ Consider the ma’aseh HaElohim; for who can make straight what Hashem hath made crooked?

¹⁴ In the yom tovah be joyful, but in the yom ra’ah consider: HaElohim also hath set the one over against the other in such a way that adam may not find out anything that will come after him.
