akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one' birth.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:2 @ It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:3 @ Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:4 @ The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:5 @ It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:6 @ For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool: this also is vanity.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:7 @ Surely oppression makes a wise man mad; and a gift destroys the heart.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:8 @ Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:9 @ Be not hasty in your spirit to be angry: for anger rests in the bosom of fools.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:10 @ Say not you, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for you do not inquire wisely concerning this.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:11 @ Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:12 @ For wisdom is a defense, and money is a defense: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom gives life to them that have it.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:13 @ Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he has made crooked?

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @ In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: God also has set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongs his life in his wickedness.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:16 @ Be not righteous over much; neither make yourself over wise: why should you destroy yourself?

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:17 @ Be not over much wicked, neither be you foolish: why should you die before your time?

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:18 @ It is good that you should take hold of this; yes, also from this withdraw not your hand: for he that fears God shall come forth of them all.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:19 @ Wisdom strengthens the wise more than ten mighty men which are in the city.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:20 @ For there is not a just man on earth, that does good, and sins not.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:21 @ Also take no heed to all words that are spoken; lest you hear your servant curse you:

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @ For oftentimes also your own heart knows that you yourself likewise have cursed others.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:23 @ All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:24 @ That which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out?

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ I applied my heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness:

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:26 @ And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoever pleases God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:27 @ Behold, this have I found, said the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account:

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:28 @ Which yet my soul seeks, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.

akjv@Ecclesiastes:7:29 @ See, this only have I found, that God has made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.
