13. See the work of God, For who is able to make straight that which He made crooked?
14. In a day of prosperity be in gladness, And in a day of evil consider. Also this over-against that hath God made, To the intent that man doth not find anything after him.
15. The whole I have considered in the days of my vanity. There is a righteous one perishing in his righteousness, and there is a wrong-doer prolonging [himself] in his wrong.
16. Be not over-righteous, nor show thyself too wise, why art thou desolate?
17. Do not much wrong, neither be thou a fool, why dost thou die within thy time?
18. [It is] good that thou dost lay hold on this, and also, from that withdrawest not thy hand, for whoso is fearing God goeth out with them all.
