Ecclesiastes 10:17-20 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

17. Blessed is the land whose king is of noble birthand whose princes eat at a proper time –for strength and not for drunkenness.

18. Through laziness, the rafters sag;because of idle hands, the house leaks.

19. A feast is made for laughter,wine makes life merry,and money is the answer for everything.

20. Do not revile the king even in your thoughts,or curse the rich in your bedroom,because a bird in the sky may carry your words,and a bird on the wing may report what you say.
