Ecclesiastes 9:7


Ecclesiastes 9:6 Ecclesiastes 9:7 (KJV) Ecclesiastes 9:8
Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any [thing] that is done under the sun.
Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.
Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack no ointment.
