Ecclesiastes 8:2-6 New Life Version (NLV) Obey the King 2 I say, “Obey the words of the king because of the promise you made to God. 3 Do not be in a hurry to leave him. Do not join in wrong-doing, for he will do whatever he pleases.” 4 Since the king’s word is powerful, who will say to him, “What are you doing?” 5 He who obeys the king’s law will have no trouble, for a wise heart knows the right time and way. 6 For there is a right time and way for everything, even if a man’s trouble is heavy upon him.
