Ecclesiastes 8:3-5

Easy-to-Read Version

³ Don’t be afraid to give suggestions to the king, and don’t support something that is wrong. But remember, the king gives the commands that please him. ⁴ He has the authority to give commands, and no one can tell him what to do. ⁵ People will be safe if they obey his command. But wise people know the right time to do this, and they also know when to do the right thing.
