ECCLESIASTES 5:8-20
« Ecclesiastes 4 | Ecclesiastes 5 | Ecclesiastes 6 »
The Vanity of Wealth and Honor8 If you see in a province the oppression of the poor and the violation of justice and righteousness, do not be amazed at the matter, for the high official is watched by a higher, and there are yet higher ones over them. 9 But this is gain for a land in every way: a king committed to cultivated fields.The ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version® copyright © 2001 by Crossway Bibles, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.
