21:003:014 I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
21:003:015 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
21:003:016 And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that
wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that
iniquity was there.
21:003:017 I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the
wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for
every work.
21:003:018 I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men,
that God might manifest them, and that they might see that
they themselves are beasts.
21:003:019 For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
21:003:020 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to
dust again.
21:003:021 Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the
spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?
21:003:022 Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
21:004:001 So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter.
