Ecclesiastes 3:10


Ecclesiastes 3:9 Ecclesiastes 3:10 (KJV) Ecclesiastes 3:11
What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
He hath made every [thing] beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
