Ecclesiastes 8:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² I observe the mouth of the king, and the commandments of the oath of God.

³ Be not hasty to depart from his face, and do not continue in an evil work: for he will do all that pleaseth him:

⁴ And his word is full of power: neither can any man say to him: Why dost thou so?
