Ecclesiastes 8:1-2
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

Obey the King and Enjoy Yourself

8 Who is like the wise man?

    And who knows the interpretation of a thing?
Wisdom makes one’s face shine,
    and the hardness of one’s countenance is changed.

2 Keep[a] the king’s command because of your sacred oath.
