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 it is not from wisdom that you ask 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, and in the day of adversity consider; God has made the one as well as the other, so that mortals may not find out anything that will come after them. |
There is no one on earth who is so righteous that he does nothing but good and never sins. | Surely there is no one on earth so righteous as to do good without ever sinning. |
