21:008:016 When I applied mine heart to know wisdom, and to see the
           business that is done upon the earth:  (for also there is that
           neither day nor night seeth sleep with his eyes:)

21:008:017 Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out
           the work that is done under the sun:  because though a man
           labour to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yea farther;
           though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able
           to find it.

21:009:001 For all this I considered in my heart even to declare all
           this, that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are
           in the hand of God:  no man knoweth either love or hatred by
           all that is before them.

21:009:002 All things come alike to all:  there is one event to the
           righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean,
           and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that
           sacrificeth not:  as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that
           sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.

21:009:003 This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun,
           that there is one event unto all:  yea, also the heart of the
           sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart
           while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

21:009:004 For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope:  for
           a living dog is better than a dead lion.

21:009:005 For the living know that they shall die:  but the dead know not
           any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory
           of them is forgotten.

21:009:006 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.

21:009:007 Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a
           merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

21:009:008 Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack no
           ointment.

21:009:009 Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of
           the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the
           sun, all the days of thy vanity:  for that is thy portion in
           this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.

21:009:010 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for
           there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in
           the grave, whither thou goest.

21:009:011 I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the
           swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the
           wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour
           to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
