“Why were the former days better than these?”
For you do not inquire wisely concerning this.
But the1 excellence of knowledge is that wisdom gives blife to those who have it.
But in the day of adversity consider:
Surely God has appointed the one1 as well as the other,
So that man can find out nothing that will come after him.
aThere is a just man who perishes in his righteousness,
And there is a wicked man who prolongs life in his wickedness.

Ecclesiastes 7:11
Good - When wisdom and riches meet in one man, it is an happy conjunction. By it - By wisdom joined with riches there comes great benefit. To them - Not only to a man's self, but many others in this world.
