Ecclesiastes 10:16-18 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

16. Woe to the land whose king was a servantand whose princes feast in the morning.

17. Blessed is the land whose king is of noble birthand whose princes eat at a proper time –for strength and not for drunkenness.

18. Through laziness, the rafters sag;because of idle hands, the house leaks.
