Ecclesiastes 2:26

← Ecclesiastes 2:25 Ecclesiastes 2:26 (KJV) Ecclesiastes 3:1 →
For who can eat, or who else can hasten [hereunto], more than I?
For [God] giveth to a man that [is] good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to [him that is] good before God. This also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.
To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
