Ecclesiastes 7:15-17

Tree of Life Version

¹⁵ During my fleeting days I have seen both of these things:
sometimes a righteous one perishes in his righteousness
and sometimes a wicked one lives long in his wickedness.
¹⁶ Do not be overly righteous
    nor overly wise—
why confound yourself?
¹⁷ Do not be overly wicked
    and do not be a fool—
why die before your time?
