Ecclesiastes 10:16-18

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁶ Woe to you, land, when your king is a youth^(A)
and your princes feast in the morning.
¹⁷ Blessed are you, land, when your king is a son of nobles
and your princes feast at the proper time—
for strength and not for drunkenness.^(B)
18 Because of laziness the roof caves in,
and because of negligent hands the house leaks.
