Ecclesiastes 9:7-11

⁷Therefore go thou, just man, and eat thy bread in gladness, and drink thy wine with joy; for thy works please God.

⁸In each time thy clothes be white, and oil fail not from thine head.

⁹Use thou life with the wife which thou lovest, in all the days of the life of thine unstableness, that be given to thee under the sun, in all the time of thy vanity; for this is thy part in thy life and thy travail, by which thou travailest under the sun.

¹⁰Work thou busily, whatever thing thine hand may do; for neither work, neither reason, nor knowing, nor wisdom, shall be at hells or with hell, whither thou hastest.

¹¹I turned me to another thing, and I saw under the sun, that running or course is not of swift men, neither battle is of strong men, neither bread is of wise men, neither riches be of teachers, nor grace is of craftsmen; but time and hap is in all things.
