Better with Those Who Fear God

The Preacher said that wisdom makes a person's face shine. Wise people are glad and kind.
He said to obey the king. Whoever keeps the commandment shall not come to harm.
Sometimes it looks like bad people get away with wrong. But the Preacher knew it will be better with those who fear God.
