Ecclesiastes 8:5-6

KJV

NIV

5 Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.
5 Whoever obeys his command will come to no harm, and the wise heart will know the proper time and procedure.
6 Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great upon him.
6 For there is a proper time and procedure for every matter, though a person may be weighed down by misery.
