9. What does the worker gain from his struggles?
|

10. I have seen the task that God has given the children of Adam to keep them occupied.

16. I also observed under the sun: there is wickedness at the place of judgment and there is wickedness at the place of righteousness.
|
||||
17. I said to myself, "God will judge the righteous and the wicked, since there is a time for every activity and every work."
|
||||
18. I said to myself, "This happens so that God may test the children of Adam and they may see for themselves that they are like animals."
|
||||
19. For the fate of the children of Adam and the fate of animals is the same. As one dies, so dies the other; they all have the same breath. People have no advantage over animals since everything is futile.
|
||||
20. All are going to the same place; all come from dust, and all return to dust.
|
||||
21. Who knows if the spirits of the children of Adam go upward and the spirits of animals go downward to the earth?
|
||||
22. I have seen that there is nothing better than for a person to enjoy his activities because that is his reward. For who can enable him to see what will happen after he dies?
