7Go then, 1eat your bread in happiness and drink your wine with a cheerful heart; for God has already approved your works. 8Let your 2clothes be white all the time, and let not 3oil be lacking on your head. 9Enjoy life with the woman whom you love all the days of your 4 5fleeting life which He has given to you under the sun6; for this is your 7reward in life and in your toil in which you have labored under the sun.
