| Do not say, “Why is it that the former days were better than these?” For it is not from wisdom that you ask about this. | Don’t long for “the good old days.” This is not wise. |
| On the day of prosperity be happy, But on the day of adversity consider: God has made the one as well as the other So that a person will not discover anything that will come after him. | Enjoy prosperity while you can, but when hard times strike, realize that both come from God. Remember that nothing is certain in this life. |
| Indeed, there is not a righteous person on earth who always does good and does not ever sin. | Not a single person on earth is always good and never sins. |
