5 Trust in Jehovah with all your heart+ and do not lean upon your own understanding.+

11 I returned to see* under the sun that the swift do not have the race,+ nor the mighty ones the battle,+ nor do the wise also have the food,*+ nor do the understanding ones also have the riches,+ nor do even those having knowledge have the favor;+ because time and unforeseen occurrence befall them all.*+

21 Woe to those wise in their own eyes and discreet even in front of their own faces!+
