21:002:014 The wise man’s eyes are in his head; but the fool walketh in
           darkness:  and I myself perceived also that one event happeneth
           to them all.

21:002:015 Then said I in my heart, As it happeneth to the fool, so it
           happeneth even to me; and why was I then more wise?  Then I
           said in my heart, that this also is vanity.

21:002:016 For there is no remembrance of the wise more than of the fool
           for ever; seeing that which now is in the days to come shall
           all be forgotten.  And how dieth the wise man? as the fool.

21:002:017 Therefore I hated life; because the work that is wrought under
           the sun is grievous unto me:  for all is vanity and vexation of
           spirit.

21:002:018 Yea, I hated all my labour which I had taken under the sun: 
           because I should leave it unto the man that shall be after me.

21:002:019 And who knoweth whether he shall be a wise man or a fool? yet
           shall he have rule over all my labour wherein I have laboured,
           and wherein I have shewed myself wise under the sun.  This is
           also vanity.

21:002:020 Therefore I went about to cause my heart to despair of all the
           labour which I took under the sun.

21:002:021 For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in
           knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that hath not laboured
           therein shall he leave it for his portion.  This also is vanity
           and a great evil.

21:002:022 For what hath man of all his labour, and of the vexation of
           his heart, wherein he hath laboured under the sun?

21:002:023 For all his days are sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his
           heart taketh not rest in the night.  This is also vanity.

21:002:024 There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and
           drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his
           labour.  This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.

21:002:025 For who can eat, or who else can hasten hereunto, more than I?

21:002:026 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.

21:003:001 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose
           under the heaven: 

21:003:002 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a
           time to pluck up that which is planted;

21:003:003 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and
           a time to build up;

21:003:004 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a
           time to dance;
