Ecclesiastes 7:16-18
New International Reader's Version
16 Don’t claim to be better than you are.
And don’t claim to be wiser than you are.
Why destroy yourself?
17 Don’t be too sinful.
And don’t be foolish.
Why die before your time comes?
18 It’s good to hold on to both of those things.
Don’t let go of either one.
Whoever has respect for God will avoid
going too far in either direction.
