Ecclesiastes 10:17-19
Modern English Version

17 Happy are you, O land, when your king is from nobility,
    and your princes are feasting at the appropriate time—
    with self-control and not drunkenness!

18 The roof beams sink in with slothfulness,
    and with the idleness of one’s hands the house drips.

19 They make feasts for laughter,
    and wine gladdens life;
    but money resolves everything.
