Ecclesiastes 10:17-20 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

17. A country is well offif its king comes from a good family.It is good for a countryif its leaders control their eating and drinking.They should eat and drink for strength,not to get drunk.

18. If a person is lazy and doesn’t repair the roof,it will begin to fall.If he refuses to fix it,the house will leak.

19. A party makes you feel good.And wine makes you feel happy.But both cost you a lot of money.

20. Don’t say or think bad things about the king.And don’t say bad things about rich people even alone in your bedroom.A little bird might report it to others.A bird might fly to them and tell all you said.
