Eccles. 8.14.15. 14. There is a vanity which is done upon the Earth, that there be just men unto whom it happeneth according to the work of the wicked: again, there be wicked men, to whom it happeneth according to the work of the righteous; I said, that this also is vanity. 15. Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the Sun, then to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the Sun.
Eccles. 8.14.15. 14. There is a vanity which is done upon the Earth, that there be just men unto whom it happeneth according to the worke of the wicked: againe, there be wicked men, to whom it happeneth according to the worke of the righteous; I said, that this also is vanity. 15. Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the Sun, then to eate, and to drinke, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the dayes of his life, which God giveth him under the Sun.
