Ecclesiastes 3:9-14 (Revised Standard Version)
9
What gain has the worker from his toil?
10
I have seen the business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with.
11
He has made everything beautiful in its time; also he has put eternity into man's mind, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.
12
I know that there is nothing better for them than to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live;
13
also that it is God's gift to man that every one should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil.
14
I know that whatever God does endures for ever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; God has made it so, in order that men should fear before him.
