4 But for him who is joined to all the living there is hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
5 For the living know that they will die;
But athe dead know nothing,
And they have no more reward,
For bthe memory of them is forgotten.
But athe dead know nothing,
And they have no more reward,
For bthe memory of them is forgotten.
6 Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished;
Nevermore will they have a share
In anything done under the sun.
Nevermore will they have a share
In anything done under the sun.
7 Go, aeat your bread with joy,
And drink your wine with a merry heart;
For God has already accepted your works.
And drink your wine with a merry heart;
For God has already accepted your works.
8 Let your garments always be white,
And let your head lack no oil.
And let your head lack no oil.
