| King James Version (KJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 12 I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice , and to do good in his life. | 12 I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. |
| 13 And also that every man should eat and drink , and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God. | 13 That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil--this is the gift of God. |
