King James Version
"Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack no ointment."
— Ecclesiastes 9:8, King James Version
“Let thy garments be always white; and let not thy head lack oil. ”
“Let your garments be always white, and don't let your head lack oil.”
“Let your clothes always be white, and do not spare precious ointment on your head.”
“At all times let thy garments be white, and let not oil depart from thy head.”
“Let your clothing be white at all times, and let not your head be without oil.”
“Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack no ointment.”
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.
I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
