Ecclesiastes 8:4 in context

2I counsel thee to keep the king’s commandment, and that in regard of the oath of God.

3Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.

4Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?

5Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man’s heart discerneth both time and judgment.

6Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great upon him.
