Ecclesiastes 10:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁸ Because of your negligence the roof begins to collapse,
    and when hands remain idle, the house leaks.
¹⁹ Feasts are designed for merriment,
    wine makes us cheerful,
    and money solves every need.^[a]
20 Even in your thoughts,
    do not curse the king,
    nor revile the rich even in your bedroom;
for a bird of the air may carry your voice,
    or a winged creature may repeat what you have said.
