Also this over-against that hath God made, To the intent that man doth not find anything after him. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> The whole I have considered in the days of my vanity. There is a righteous one perishing in his righteousness, and there is a wrong-doer prolonging `himself&#8217; in his wrong. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> Be not over-righteous, nor show thyself too wise, why art thou desolate? <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> Do not much wrong, neither be thou a fool, why dost thou die within thy time? <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> `It is&#8217; good that thou dost lay hold on this, and also, from that withdrawest not thy hand, for whoso is fearing God goeth out with them all. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> The wisdom giveth strength to a wise man, more than wealth the rulers who have been in a city. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> Because there is not a righteous man on earth that doth good and sinneth not. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> Also to all the words that they speak give not thy heart, that thou hear not thy servant reviling thee. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> For many times also hath thy heart known that thou thyself also hast reviled others. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> All this I have tried by wisdom; I have said, `I am wise,&#8217; and it `is&#8217; far from me. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> Far off `is&#8217; that which hath been, and deep, deep, who doth find it? <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> I have turned round, also my heart, to know and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and reason, and to know the wrong of folly, and of foolishness the madness. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> And I am finding more bitter than death, the woman whose heart `is&#8217; nets and snares, her hands `are&#8217; bands; the good before God escapeth from her, but the sinner is captured by her. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> See, this I have found, said the Preacher, one to one, to find out the reason <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> (that still my soul had sought, and I had not found), One man, a teacher, I have found, and a woman among all these I have not found. <\/br><strong>29<\/strong> See, this alone I have found, that God made man upright, and they &#8212;
