Ecclesiastes 3:12-22

I know
<03045> (8804)
that [there is] no good
<02896>
in them, but for [a man] to rejoice
<08055> (8800)_,
and to do
<06213> (8800)
good
<02896>
in his life
<02416>_.
And also that every man
<0120>
should eat
<0398> (8799)
and drink
<08354> (8804)_,
and enjoy
<07200> (8804)
the good
<02896>
of all his labour
<05999>_,
it [is] the gift
<04991>
of God
<0430>_.
I know
<03045> (8804)
that, whatsoever God
<0430>
doeth
<06213> (8799)_,
it shall be for ever
<05769>_:
nothing
<0369>
can be put
<03254> (8687)
to it, nor any thing taken
<01639> (8800)
from it: and God
<0430>
doeth
<06213> (8804)
[it], that [men] should fear
<03372> (8799)
before
<06440>
him.
That which hath been is now
<03528>_;
and that which is to be hath already
<03528>
been; and God
<0430>
requireth
<01245> (8762)
that which is past
<07291> (8737)_.
{that which is past: Heb. that which is driven away}
And moreover I saw
<07200> (8804)
under the sun
<08121>
the place
<04725>
of judgment
<04941>_,
[that] wickedness
<07562>
[was] there; and the place
<04725>
of righteousness
<06664>_,
[that] iniquity
<07562>
[was] there.
I said
<0559> (8804)
in mine heart
<03820>_,
God
<0430>
shall judge
<08199> (8799)
the righteous
<06662>
and the wicked
<07563>_:
for [there is] a time
<06256>
there for every purpose
<02656>
and for every work
<04639>_.
I said
<0559> (8804)
in mine heart
<03820>
concerning the estate
<01700>
of the sons
<01121>
of men
<0120>_,
that God
<0430>
might manifest
<01305> (8800)
them, and that they might see
<07200> (8800)
that they
<01992>
themselves are beasts
<0929>_.
{that God...: or, that they might clear God, and see, etc}
For that which befalleth
<04745>
the sons
<01121>
of men
<0120>
befalleth
<04745>
beasts
<0929>_;
even one thing
<0259>
befalleth
<04745>
them: as the one dieth
<04194>_,
so dieth
<04194>
the other
<02088>_;
yea, they have all one
<0259>
breath
<07307>_;
so that a man
<0120>
hath no preeminence
<04195>
above a beast
<0929>_:
for all [is] vanity
<01892>_.
All go
<01980> (8802)
unto one
<0259>
place
<04725>_;
all are of the dust
<06083>_,
and all turn
<07725> (0)
to dust
<06083>
again
<07725> (8804)_.
Who knoweth
<03045> (8802)
the spirit
<07307>
of man
<01121> <0120>
that goeth
<05927> (8802)
upward
<04605>_,
and the spirit
<07307>
of the beast
<0929>
that goeth
<03381> (8802)
downward
<04295>
to the earth
<0776>_?
{of man: Heb. of the sons of man} {goeth upward: Heb. is ascending, etc}
Wherefore I perceive
<07200> (8804)
that [there is] nothing better
<02896>_,
than that a man
<0120>
should rejoice
<08055> (8799)
in his own works
<04639>_;
for that [is] his portion
<02506>_:
for who shall bring
<0935> (8686)
him to see
<07200> (8800)
what shall be after
<0310>
him?
