⁹ What profit hath he that worketh, in that wherein, himself, hath toiled? ¹⁰ I looked at the employment which God hath given to the sons of men, to work therein: ¹¹ Everything, hath he made beautiful in its own time, - also, intelligence, hath he put in their heart, without which men could not find out the work which God hath wrought, from the beginning even unto the end. ¹² I know that there is no blessedness in them, - save to be glad, and to do well with one's life. ¹³ Though indeed, that any man should eat and drink, and see blessedness, in all his toil, it is, the gift of God. ¹⁴ I know, that, whatsoever God doeth, the same, shall be age-abiding, unto it, there is nothing to add, and, from it, there is nothing to take away, - and, God, hath done it, that men should stand in awe before him. ¹⁵ That which was, already, had been, and, that which shall be, already, shall have been, - but, God, seeketh that which hath been chased away.
