Ecclesiastes 5:6-9 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

6. Permit not your mouth to cause your flesh to sin; neither say before the angel, that it was an error: why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

7. For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also many vanities: but you fear God.

8. If you see the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of justice and righteousness in a province, marvel not at the matter: for the high official is watched by a higher one ; and there are yet higher ones over them.

9. Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served from the field.
