Ec 3:17: 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.

Ec 3:18: 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.

Ec 3:19: 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.

Ec 3:20: All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.

Ec 3:21: Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?

Ec 3:22: 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?
