"Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked? "
— Ecclesiastes 7:13, American Standard Version
“Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked?”
“Consider the work of God, for who can make that straight, which he has made crooked?”
“Wisdom Acknowledges God’s Orchestration of Life Consider the work of God: For who can make straight what he has bent?”
“For as wisdom is a defence, so money is a defence: but learning and wisdom excel in this, that they give life to him that possesseth them.”
“Give thought to the work of God. Who will make straight what he has made bent?”
“Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked?”
Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not inquire wisely concerning this.
Wisdom is as good as an inheritance; yea, more excellent is it for them that see the sun.
For wisdom is a defence, even as money is a defence; but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom preserveth the life of him that hath it.
Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked?
In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider; yea, God hath made the one side by side with the other, to the end that man should not find out anything that shall be after him.
All this have I seen in my days of vanity: there is a righteous man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his evil-doing.
Be not righteous overmuch; neither make thyself overwise: why shouldest thou destroy thyself?
