21:007:021 Also take no heed unto all words that are spoken; lest thou hear thy servant curse thee: 21:007:022 For oftentimes also thine own heart knoweth that thou thyself likewise hast cursed others. 21:007:023 All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me. 21:007:024 That which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out? 21:007:025 I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness: 21:007:026 And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her. 21:007:027 Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account: 21:007:028 Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found. 21:007:029 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions. 21:008:001 Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man's wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed. 21:008:002 I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in regard of the oath of God. 21:008:003 Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him. 21:008:004 Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou? 21:008:005 Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment. 21:008:006 Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great upon him. 21:008:007 For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be? 21:008:008 There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in that war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it. 21:008:009 All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time wherein one man ruleth over another to his own hurt. 21:008:010 And so I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of the holy, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done: this is also vanity. 21:008:011 Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
