Ecclesiastes 3:18
| ← Ecclesiastes 3:17 | Ecclesiastes 3:18 (KJV) | Ecclesiastes 3:19 → |
|---|---|---|
I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.
|
I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
|
For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
