Ecclesiastes 12:9-14
9And further, because the Preacher wasH1961 wiseH2450, he stillH5750 taughtH3925 the peopleH5971 knowledgeH1847; yea, he pondered, and sought out, and set in order manyH7235 proverbsH4912. 10The Preacher soughtH1245 to findH4672 out acceptable wordsH1697, and that which was writtenH3789 uprightly, even wordsH1697 of truthH571.
11The wordsH1697 of the wiseH2450 are as goads; and as nails well fastened are the wordsH1697 of the mastersH1167 of assemblies, which are givenH5414 from oneH259 shepherdH7462. 12And furthermore, my sonH1121, be admonished: of making manyH7235 booksH5612 there is no endH7093; and muchH7235 study is a weariness of the fleshH1320.
13This isthe endH5490 of the matterH1697; all hath been heardH8085: FearH3372 GodH430, and keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687; for this is the whole duty of manH120. 14For GodH430 will bringH935 every workH4639 into judgmentH4941, with every hiddenH5956 thing, whether it be goodH2896, or whether it be evilH7451.
