Man that is in honor, and understands not, is like the beasts that perish.
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.
Before I go from where I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
Does not their excellency which is in them go away? they die, even without wisdom.
Nevertheless man being in honor stays not: he is like the beasts that perish.
But if a man live many years, and rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that comes is vanity.
