Ecclesiastes 8:3-5

Darby Translation

³ Be not hasty to go out of his sight; persist not in an evil thing: for he doeth whatever pleaseth him,

⁴ because the word of a king is power; and who may say unto him, What doest thou?

⁵ Whoso keepeth the commandment shall know no evil thing; and a wise man's heart knoweth time and manner.
