It shall be forever.
aNothing can be added to it,
And nothing taken from it.
God does it, that men should fear before Him.
And what is to be has already been;
And God1 requires an account of what is past.

In the place of1 judgment,
Wickedness was there;
And in the place of righteousness,
1Iniquity was there.

The last clause of this verse goes beyond a declaration of the fact of God' s government of the world Ecclesiastes 2:26 by adding the moral effect which that fact is calculated to produce on those who see it. It is the first indication of the practical conclusion Ecclesiastes 12:13 of the book.
