Ecclesiastes ,, Chapter 9 to 12
ECCLESIASTES 9:3
558 singer, and he who sweats is as he who shuns an oath. This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that the same event happens to all. Also, the hearts of the children of man are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live. and after that they go to the dead. But he who is joined with all the living has hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion. For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing, and they have no more reward, for the memory of them is forgotten. Their love and their hate and their envy have already perished. and forever they have no more share in all that is done under the sun.
Enjoy Life with the One You Love
Go, eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart, for God has already approved what you do.
Let your garments be always white. Let not oil be lacking on your head.
*Enjoy life with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain' life that he has given you under the sun, because that is your por-tion in life and in your toil at which you toil under the sun. "Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might, for there is no work or thought or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol, to which you are going.
Wisdom Better Than Folly
"Again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent. nor favor to those with knowledge, but time and chance happen to them all. "For man does not know his time. Like fish that are taken in an evil net, and like birds that are caught in a snare, so the children of man are snared at an evil time, when it suddenly falls upon them
I have also seen this example of wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great to me. "There was a little city with few men in it and a a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it. "But there was found in it a poor, wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city: Yet no one remem-bered that poor man. "But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man's
wisdom is despised and his words are not heard The words of the wise heard in quiet are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools.

Remember Your Creator in Your Youth
12 Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near of which you will say
"I have no pleasure in them", "before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars are darkened and the clouds return after the rain, in the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men are bent, and the grinders crase because they are few, and those who look through the windows are dimmed, and the doors on the street are shut-when the sound of the grinding is low, and one rises up at the sound of a bird, and all the daughters of song are brought low they are afraid also of what is high, and terrors are in the way, the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along. and desire fails, because man is going to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets before the silver cord is snapped, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is shartered at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern, and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
