- Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this.
- In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: God also hath set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.
As for God, his way is perfect:
the word of the Lord is tried:
he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
