Ecclesiastes 10:18-20

New Century Version

¹⁸ If someone is lazy, the roof will begin to fall.
    If he doesn’t fix it, the house will leak.

¹⁹ A party makes you feel good,
    wine makes you feel happy,
    and money buys anything.

²⁰ Don’t make fun of the king,
    and don’t make fun of rich people, even in your bedroom.
A little bird might carry your words;
    a bird might fly and tell what you said.
