Often wisdom invites us to ponder great questions. The question, “Can anyone make straight what God has made crooked?” echoes the words of 1:15—“Something crooked cannot be made straight.” Only God can determine what is and what is not. God makes our paths crooked or straight. And we often do not understand why one person’s way is straight and another’s is crooked. The message of the teacher is simple: reverence God regardless of the path you have been given to walk.

14 Teacher: When times are good,
        enjoy them and be happy.
    When times are bad,
        think about this:
    God makes both good and bad times,
        so that no one really knows what is coming next.
