Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.

Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.

I will shew thee, hear me; and that which I have seen I will declare;

I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter.

All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness.

All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time wherein one man ruleth over another to his own hurt.
