Ecclesiastes 7:17-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁷ Don’t be too wicked, and don’t be a fool. Why should you die before your time is up? ¹⁸ It’s good to hold on to the one and not let go of the other, because the one who fears God will be able to avoid both extremes.

The Advantages of Wisdom

¹⁹ Wisdom will help a wise person more than ten rulers can help a city.
