Ecclesiastes 3:9-14

⁹◄What do people gain from all the work that they do?/It seems that people gain very little from all the work that they do RHQ►.

¹⁰I have seen the work that God has given people to do.

¹¹God has appointed a time that is right/correct for everything to happen. He has also caused people to realize that there are things that will endure forever. But in spite of that, no one can completely understand everything that God has done, from the time that he starts doing things until he finishes them.

¹²I know that the best LIT thing for us people to do is to rejoice and to do good things all during the time that we are alive.

¹³And I also know that everyone should eat and drink, and enjoy the work that they do. Those are things that God gives to us.

¹⁴I also know that what God does endures forever. No one can add to what God does, and no one can take away from the things that God does. God does those things in order that people would revere him.
