Seeker Overlay ON
*
And in addition to this that Koheleth was wise ,
he continually also taught the people knowledge ,
and he probed ,
and searched out ,
and composed many proverbs .
*
Koheleth sought to find out acceptable words ,
and that which would be written down uprightly ,
even words of truth .
*
The words of the wise are like goads ,
and like nails fastened the men of the assemblies ,
which are given by one shepherd .
*
But more than all these ,
my son ,
take warning for thyself :
the making of many books would have no end ;
and much preaching is a weariness of the flesh .
*
The end of the matter is ,
let us hear the whole :
Fear God ,
and keep his commandments ;
for this is the whole man .
*
For every deed will God bring into the judgment concerning every thing that hath been hidden ,
whether it be good ,
or whether it be bad .
