Priljubljene svetopisemske vrstice iz Ecclesiastes 8

Deli

So I recommend having fun, because there is nothing better for people in this world than to eat, drink, and enjoy life. That way they will experience some happiness along with all the hard work God gives them under the sun.

But even though a person sins a hundred times and still lives a long time, I know that those who fear God will be better off.

for there is a time and a way for everything, even when a person is in trouble.

None of us can hold back our spirit from departing. None of us has the power to prevent the day of our death. There is no escaping that obligation, that dark battle. And in the face of death, wickedness will certainly not rescue the wicked.

When a crime is not punished quickly, people feel it is safe to do wrong.

And this is not all that is meaningless in our world. In this life, good people are often treated as though they were wicked, and wicked people are often treated as though they were good. This is so meaningless!

Indeed, how can people avoid what they don’t know is going to happen?
