Ecclesiastes 7:17-18
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 7
17
Do not be excessively wicked, and do not be foolish. Why should you die before your time?
18
It is good that you grasp one thing while not letting go of the other; for one who fears God comes out with both of them.
King James Version
Chapter 7
17
Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time?
18
It is
good that thou shouldest take hold of this; yea, also from this withdraw not thine hand: for he that feareth God shall come forth of them all.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 7
17
Don't be excessively wicked, and don't be foolish. Why should you die before your time?
18
It is good that you grasp the one and do not let the other slip from your hand. For the one who fears God will end up with both of them.
New Living Translation
Chapter 7
17
On the other hand, don’t be too wicked either. Don’t be a fool! Why die before your time?
18
Pay attention to these instructions, for anyone who fears God will avoid both extremes.
English Standard Version
Chapter 7
17
Be not overly wicked, neither be a fool. Why should you die before your time?
18
It is good that you should take hold of this, and from that withhold not your hand, for the one who fears God shall come out from both of them.
New International Version
Chapter 7
17
Do not be overwicked, and do not be a fool-- why die before your time?
18
It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other. Whoever fears God will avoid all extremes.
New King James Version
Chapter 7
17
Do not be overly wicked,
Nor be foolish:
Why should you die before your time?
18
It is
good that you grasp this,
And also not remove your hand from the other;
For he who fears God will escape them all.
