BRAGADAYJAH 1635

BRAGADAYJAH 1635 Ecclesiastes 3: Verses 12-22 I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice and to be good in his life. And also, that every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labour; it is the gift of God. I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever, nothing can be put to it, nor anything taken from it. And God doeth it, and men should fear before Him. That which has been is now; and that which is to be, hath already been; and God enquireth that which is past. And moreover, I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there. 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 my 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 all have one breath. So that a man hath no pre-eminence above a beast; for all is vanity. All go unto one place, all are of the dust; and all turn to dust again. Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward and the spirit of the beast that goeth downwards to the earth? Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his own works, for that is his portion; for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
