Ecclesiastes 7:13-15
American Standard Version
13 Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked? 14 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. 15 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.

Ecclesiastes 7:13-15
New International Version
13 Consider what God has done:(A)
Who can straighten
what he has made crooked?(B)
14 When times are good, be happy;
but when times are bad, consider this:
God has made the one
as well as the other.(C)
Therefore, no one can discover
anything about their future.
15 In this meaningless life(D) of mine I have seen both of these:
the righteous perishing in their righteousness,
and the wicked living long in their wickedness.(E)
