Ecclesiastes 8:12-17
[12 ] Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and prolongs his
life, yet I know that it will be well with those who fear God, because
they fear before him; [13 ] but it will not be well with the wicked, neither will he prolong his days like a shadow, because he does not fear before God. [14 ] There
is a vanity which takes place on earth, that there are righteous men to
whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked, and there are
wicked men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I
said that this also is vanity.
[15 ] And I commend
enjoyment, for man has no good thing under the sun but to eat and drink,
and enjoy himself, for this will go with him in his toil through the
days of life which God gives him under the sun. [16 ] When I
applied my mind to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done on
earth, how neither day nor night one's eyes see sleep; [17 ]
then I saw all the work of God, that man cannot find out the work that
is done under the sun. However much man may toil in seeking, he will not
find it out; even though a wise man claims to know, he cannot find it
out.
