TSK · Ecclesiastes 3:1

In his pain Manasseh asked the LORD his God for mercy and truly humbled himself before the God of his ancestors.

I thought deeply about the effects of indulging myself with wine(all the while my mind was guiding me with wisdom) and the effects of behaving foolishly, so that I might discover what is profitable for people to do on earth during the few days of their lives.

I thought to myself,“God will judge both the righteous and the wicked; for there is an appropriate time for every activity, and there is a time of judgment for every deed.

Whoever obeys his command will not experience harm, and a wise person knows the proper time and procedure.

There at home they will say,‘Pharaoh king of Egypt is just a big noise! He has let the most opportune moment pass by.’
