Ecclesiastes 12:9-14

9And moreover, because the Preacher wasH1961 wiseH2450, he stillH5750 taughtH3925 the peopleH5971 knowledgeH1847; and he pondered, and sought out, [and] set in order manyH7235 proverbsH4912. 10The Preacher soughtH1245 to findH4672 out acceptable wordsH1697; and that which was writtenH3789 is upright, wordsH1697 of truthH571. 11The wordsH1697 of the wiseH2450 are as goads, and the collections [of them] as nails fastened in: they are givenH5414 from oneH259 shepherdH7462. 12And besides, my sonH1121, be warnedH2094 by them: of making manyH7235 booksH5612 there is no endH7093, and muchH7235 study is a weariness of the fleshH1320. 13Let us hearH8085 the endH5490 of the whole matterH1697: FearH3372 1GodH430, and keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687; for this is the whole of manH120. 14For 2GodH430 shall bringH935 every workH4639 into judgmentH4941, with every secret thing, whether it be goodH2896 or whether it be evilH7451.
