4For the king's word is authoritative, and who can say to him, "What are you doing? " 5The one who keeps a command will not experience anything harmful, and a wise heart knows the right time and procedure. 6For every activity there is a right time and procedure, even though a person's troubles are heavy on him. 7Yet no one knows what will happen because who can tell him what will happen?New Living Translation

4For the word of the king is supreme, and who may say to him, “What are you doing?” 5Whoever keeps a command will know no evil thing, and the wise heart will know the proper time and the just way. 6For there is a time and a way for everything, although man’s trouble lies heavy on him. 7For he does not know what is to be, for who can tell him how it will be?New International Version
