Ecclesiastes 5:7-9
American Standard Version
7 For in the multitude of dreams there are vanities, and in many words: but fear thou God. 8 If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and the violent taking away of justice and righteousness in [a]a province, marvel not at the matter: for one higher than the high regardeth; and there are higher than they. 9 [b]Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served by the field.
