Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he does whatever pleases him.
Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say to him, What do you?
Whoever keeps the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man’s heart discerns both time and judgment. ¶
Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great on him.
For he knows not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be?
