9:1 For
all
this
I
considered
in
my
heart,
euen
to
declare
all
this,
that
the
righteous,
and
the
wise,
and
their
workes,
are
in
the
hand
of
God:
no
man
knoweth
either
loue,
or
hatred,
by
all
that
is
before
them.
9:2 All
things
come
alike
to
all:
there
is
one
euent
to
the
righteous
and
to
the
wicked,
to
the
good
and
to
the
cleane,
and
to
the
vncleane;
to
him
that
sacrificeth,
and
to
him
that
sacrificeth
not:
as
is
the
good,
so
is
the
sinner,
and
hee
that
sweareth,
as
he
that
feareth
an
oath.
9:3 This
is
an
euill
among
all
things
that
are
done
vnder
the
Sunne,
that
there
is
one
euent
vnto
all:
yea
also
the
heart
of
the
sonnes
of
men
is
full
of
euill,
and
madnesse
is
in
their
heart
while
they
liue,
and
after
that
they
goe
to
the
dead.
9:4 For
to
him
that
is
ioyned
to
all
the
liuing,
there
is
hope:
for
a
liuing
dogge
is
better
then
a
dead
Lion.
9:5 For
the
liuing
know
that
they
shall
die:
but
the
dead
know
not
any
thing,
neither
haue
they
any
more
a
reward,
for
the
memorie
of
them
is
forgotten.
9:6 Also
their
loue,
and
their
hatred,
and
their
enuy
is
now
perished;
neither
haue
they
any
more
a
portion
for
euer
in
any
thing
that
is
done
vnder
the
Sunne.
9:7 Goe
thy
way,
eate
thy
bread
with
ioy,
and
drinke
thy
wine
with
a
merry
heart;
for
God
now
accepteth
thy
workes.
9:8 Let
thy
garments
bee
alwayes
white;
and
let
thy
head
lacke
no
oyntment.
9:9 Liue
ioyfully
with
the
wife,
whom
thou
louest,
all
the
dayes
of
the
life
of
thy
vanitie,
which
he
hath
giuen
thee
vnder
the
Sunne,
all
the
dayes
of
thy
vanitie:
for
that
is
thy
portion
in
this
life,
and
in
thy
labour
which
thou
takest
vnder
the
Sunne.
9:10 Whatsoeuer
thy
hand
findeth
to
doe,
doe
it
with
thy
might:
for
there
is
no
worke,
nor
deuice,
nor
knowledge,
nor
wisedome
in
the
graue,
whither
thou
goest.
9:11 I
returned,
and
saw
vnder
the
Sunne,
That
the
race
is
not
to
the
swift,
nor
the
battell
to
the
strong,
neither
yet
bread
to
the
wise,
nor
yet
riches
to
men
of
vnderstanding,
nor
yet
fauour
to
men
of
skil;
but
time
and
chance
happeneth
to
them
all.
9:12 For
man
also
knoweth
not
his
time,
as
the
fishes
that
are
taken
in
an
euil
net,
and
as
the
birds
that
are
caught
in
the
snare;
so
are
the
sonnes
of
men
snared
in
an
euill
time,
when
it
falleth
suddenly
vpon
them.
9:13 This
wisedome
haue
I
seene
also
vnder
the
Sunne,
and
it
seemed
great
vnto
me:
9:14 There
was
a
little
citie,
and
few
men
within
it;
and
there
came
a
great
King
against
it,
and
besieged
it,
&
built
great
bulwarks
against
it:
9:15 Now
there
was
found
in
it
a
poore
wise
man,
and
hee
by
his
wisedome
deliuered
the
citie;
yet
no
man
remembred
that
same
poore
man.
9:16 Then
said
I,
Wisedome
is
better
then
strength:
neuerthelesse,
the
poore
mans
wisedome
is
despised,
and
his
words
are
not
heard.
9:17 The
words
of
wise
men
are
heard
in
quiet,
more
then
the
cry
of
him
that
ruleth
among
fooles.
9:18 Wisedome
is
better
then
weapons
of
warre:
but
one
sinner
destroyeth
much
good.
