| Do not assert that the past was better than the present, for such a statement is not a sign of wisdom. | Don’t say, “Why were the former days better than these?” For you do not ask wisely about 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; yes, God has made the one side by side with the other, to the end that man should not find out anything after him. |
| There is no one on earth who is so righteous that he does nothing but good and never sins. | Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and doesn’t sin. |
