fool alike die!

[10] He who loves money will not

those who consume them
increase. So what is the advantage
to their owners except to look on?

15. Ecclesiastes 2:16-18

fool alike die!

16. Ecclesiastes 2:16-18
[17] So I hated life, for the
work which had been done under
the sun was grievous to me;
because everything is futility
and striving after wind.

17. Ecclesiastes 2:16-18
[18] Thus I hated all the fruit
of my labor for which I had
labored under the sun, for
I must leave it to the man
who will come after me.

18. We Won’t Find It In:
Pleasure

19. Ecclesiastes 2:10-11
[10] All that my eyes desired
I did not refuse them. I did not
withhold my heart from any
pleasure, for my heart was
pleased because of all my labor
and this was my reward for
all my labor.

20. Ecclesiastes 2:10-11
[11] Thus I considered all my
activities which my hands had
done and the labor which I had
exerted, and behold all was vanity
and striving after wind and there
was no profit under the sun.

21. Ecclesiates 12:1, 13-14
[1] Remember also
your Creator in the
days of your youth,
before the evil days
come and the years
draw near when
you will say, “I have
no delight in them”;

22. Ecclesiates 12:1, 13-14
[13] The
conclusion, when all
has been heard, is:
fear God and keep
His commandments,
because this applies
to every person.

23. Ecclesiates 12:1, 13-14
[14] For God will
bring every act to
judgment,
everything which is
hidden, whether it
is good or evil.
