Ecclesiastes 9:1-8

For all this I considered
<05414> (8804)
in my heart
<03820>
even to declare
<0952> (8800)
all this, that the righteous
<06662>_,
and the wise
<02450>_,
and their works
<05652>_,
[are] in the hand
<03027>
of God
<0430>_:
no man
<0120>
knoweth
<03045> (8802)
either
<01571>
love
<0160>
or hatred
<08135>
[by] all [that is] before
<06440>
them. {I considered...: Heb. I gave, or, set to my heart}
All [things come] alike to all: [there is] one
<0259>
event
<04745>
to the righteous
<06662>_,
and to the wicked
<07563>_;
to the good
<02896>
and to the clean
<02889>_,
and to the unclean
<02931>_;
to him that sacrificeth
<02076> (8802)_,
and to him that
<0834>
sacrificeth
<02076> (8802)
not: as [is] the good
<02896>_,
so [is] the sinner
<02398> (8802)_;
[and] he that sweareth
<07650> (8737)_,
as [he] that feareth
<03373>
an oath
<07621>_.
This [is] an evil
<07451>
among all [things] that are done
<06213> (8738)
under the sun
<08121>_,
that [there is] one
<0259>
event
<04745>
unto all: yea, also the heart
<03820>
of the sons
<01121>
of men
<0120>
is full
<04390> (8804)
of evil
<07451>_,
and madness
<01947>
[is] in their heart
<03824>
while they live
<02416>_,
and after
<0310>
that [they go] to the dead
<04191> (8801)_.
For
<04310>
to him that is
<03426>
joined
<02266> (8792) (8675) <0977> (8792)
to all the living
<02416>
there is hope
<0986>_:
for a living
<02416>
dog
<03611>
is better
<02896>
than a dead
<04191> (8801)
lion
<0738>_.
For the living
<02416>
know
<03045> (8802)
that they shall die
<04191> (8799)_:
but the dead
<04191> (8801)
know
<03045> (8802)
not any thing
<03972>_,
neither have they any more a reward
<07939>_;
for the memory
<02143>
of them is forgotten
<07911> (8738)_.
Also their love
<0160>_,
and their hatred
<08135>_,
and their envy
<07068>_,
is now
<03528>
perished
<06> (8804)_;
neither have they any more a portion
<02506>
for ever
<05769>
in any [thing] that is done
<06213> (8738)
under the sun
<08121>_.
Go thy way
<03212> (8798)_,
eat
<0398> (8798)
thy bread
<03899>
with joy
<08057>_,
and drink
<08354> (8798)
thy wine
<03196>
with a merry
<02896>
heart
<03820>_;
for God
<0430>
now
<03528>
accepteth
<07521> (8804)
thy works
<04639>_.
Let thy garments
<0899>
be always
<06256>
white
<03836>_;
and let thy head
<07218>
lack
<02637> (8799)
no ointment
<08081>_.
