Ecclesiastes 7:15-18

All [things] have I seen
<07200> (8804)

in the days
<03117>

of my vanity
<01892>_:

there is
<03426>

a just
<06662>

[man] that perisheth
<06> (8802)

in his righteousness
<06664>_,

and there is a wicked
<07563>

[man] that prolongeth
<0748> (8688)

[his life] in his wickedness
<07451>_.

Be not righteous
<06662>

over much
<07235> (8687)_;

neither make thyself over
<03148>

wise
<02449> (8691)_:

why shouldest thou destroy
<08074> (8709)

thyself? {destroy...: Heb. be desolate?}

Be not over much
<07235> (8687)

wicked
<07561> (8799)_,

neither be thou foolish
<05530>_:

why shouldest thou die
<04191> (8799)

before thy time
<06256>_?

{before...: Heb. not in thy time?}

[It is] good
<02896>

that thou shouldest take hold
<0270> (8799)

of this; yea, also from this
<02088>

withdraw
<03240> (8686)

not thine hand
<03027>_:

for he that feareth
<03373>

God
<0430>

shall come forth
<03318> (8799)

of them all.
