EC-9:1 For all this I considered in my heart even to declare all
this, that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, [are] in
the hand of God: no man knoweth either love or hatred [by] all
[that
is] before them.
EC-9:2 All [things come] alike to all: [there is] one event to
the
righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and
to
the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth
not: as [is] the good, so [is] the sinner; [and] he that
sweareth,
as [he] that feareth an oath.
EC-9:3 This [is] an evil among all [things] that are done under
the
sun, that [there is] one event unto all: yea, also the heart of
the
sons of men is full of evil, and madness [is] in their heart
while
they live, and after that [they go] to the dead.
EC-9:4 For to him that is joined to all the living there is
hope:
for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
EC-9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead
know
not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the
memory
of them is forgotten.
EC-9:6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now
perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any
[thing] that is done under the sun.
EC-9:7 Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine
with
a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.
EC-9:8 Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack
no
ointment.
EC-9:9 Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the
days of
the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun,
all
the days of thy vanity: for that [is] thy portion in [this] life,
and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.
EC-9:10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do [it] with thy
might;
for [there is] no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in
the grave, whither thou goest.
EC-9:11 I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race [is]
not
to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to
the
wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to
men
of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
EC-9:12 For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that
are
taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the
snare;
so [are] the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth
suddenly upon them.
