"Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works."
— Ecclesiastes 9:7, King James Version with Apocrypha
“Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.”
“Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God hath already accepted thy works. ”
“Go your way--eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already accepted your works.”
“Life is Brief, so Cherish its Joys Go, eat your food with joy, and drink your wine with a happy heart, because God has already approved your works.”
“Go then, and eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with gladness: because thy works please God.”
“Come, take your bread with joy, and your wine with a glad heart. God has taken pleasure in your works.”
For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.
Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.
Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack no ointment.
Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.
