The Bible In One Year Bible Reading For Day Number - 260 Ecclesiastes
-- 10{1} Dead
flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savour: so
doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour. {2}
A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left. {3}
Yea also, when he that is a fool walketh by the way, his wisdom faileth him, and
he saith to every one that he is a fool. {4} If the spirit of the ruler
rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great offences.
{5} There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as an error which
proceedeth from the ruler: {6} Folly is set in great dignity, and the
rich sit in low place. {7} I have seen servants upon horses, and princes
walking as servants upon the earth. {8} He that diggeth a pit shall
fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him. {9}
Whoso removeth stones shall be hurt therewith; and he that cleaveth wood shall
be endangered thereby. {10} If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet
the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct.
{11} Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is
no better. {12} The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but the
lips of a fool will swallow up himself. {13} The beginning of the words
of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.
{14} A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and
what shall be after him, who can tell him? {15} The labour of the foolish
wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city.
{16} Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat
in the morning! {17} Blessed art thou, O land, when thy king is the
son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!
{18} By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of
the hands the house droppeth through. {19} A feast is made for laughter,
and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things. {20} Curse not
the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for
a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell
the matter. Ecclesiastes
-- 11{1} Cast
thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. {2}
Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall
be upon the earth. {3} If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves
upon the earth: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in
the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be. {4} He that observeth
the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap. {5}
As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in
the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God
who maketh all. {6} In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening
withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this
or that, or whether they both shall be alike good. {7} Truly the light
is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun: {8}
But if a man live many years, and rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the
days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh is vanity. {9}
Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of
thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes:
but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment.
{10} Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy
flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity. Ecclesiastes
-- 12{1} Remember
now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the
years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them; {2}
While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the
clouds return after the rain: {3} In the day when the keepers of the
house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders
cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows be darkened,
{4} And the doors shall be shut in the streets, when the sound of the grinding
is low, and he shall rise up at the voice of the bird, and all the daughters of
musick shall be brought low; {5} Also when they shall be afraid of
that which is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall flourish,
and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because man goeth
to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets: {6} Or ever
the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken
at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. {7} Then shall
the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who
gave it. {8} Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher; all is vanity.
{9} And moreover, because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people
knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs.
{10} The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was
written was upright, even words of truth. {11} The words of the wise
are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given
from one shepherd. {12} And further, by these, my son, be admonished:
of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.
{13} Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep
his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. {14} For God shall
bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or
whether it be evil. |  |
