Ecclesiastes 10:18-20 Common English Bible (CEB)

18. Through laziness, the roof sags;through idle hands, the house leaks.

19. Feasts are made for laughter,wine cheers the living,and money answers everything.

20. Don’t curse a king even in private; don’t curse the rich in your bedroom, because a bird could carry your voice; some winged creature could report what you said!
