Do not assert that the past was better than the present, for such a statement is not a sign of wisdom. | Do not say, “Why were the former days better than these?” For you do not inquire wisely concerning this. |
When things are going well, be grateful for your blessings, and in times of adversity consider this: God has made both of them, so that we cannot predict with confidence what the future holds. | In the day of prosperity be joyful, But in the day of adversity consider: Surely God has appointed the one as well as the other, So that man can find out nothing that will come after him. |
