Ecclesiastes 7:16-18
EasyEnglish Bible

16 So do not try to be too good or too wise.
    That might cause you to have trouble.
17 But do not be too wicked. Do not be a fool.
    That might cause you to die when you are still young.
18 Remember both these things.
    Do not forget either of them.
You can do that if you respect God and you obey him.[a]
