Ecclesiastes 9:1-2
1For all this I consideredH5414 in my heartH3820 even to declareH952 all this, that the righteousH6662, and the wiseH2450, and their worksH5652, are in the handH3027 of GodH430: no manH120 knowethH3045 eitherH1571 loveH160 or hatredH8135 by all that is beforeH6440 them.1
2All things come alike to all: there is oneH259 eventH4745 to the righteousH6662, and to the wickedH7563; to the goodH2896 and to the cleanH2889, and to the uncleanH2931; to him that sacrificethH2076, and to him thatH834 sacrificethH2076 not: as is the goodH2896, so is the sinnerH2398; and he that swearethH7650, as he that fearethH3373 an oathH7621.
