Ecclesiastes 8:1-3

American Standard Version

8 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 ^[a]hardness of his face is changed. ² I counsel thee, Keep the king’s command, and that in regard of the oath of God. ³ Be not hasty to go out of his presence; persist not in an evil thing: for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.
