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.
9 1Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; afor that is your portion in life, and in the labor which you perform under the sun.
10 aWhatever your hand finds to do, do it with your bmight; for there is no work or device or knowledge or wisdom in the grave where you are going.
