Fear God and Keep His Commandments
9Besides being wise, nthe Preacher also taught the people knowledge, weighing and studying and arranging omany proverbs with great care. 10nThe Preacher sought to find words of delight, and uprightly he wrote words of truth.
11pThe words of the wise are like goads, and like qnails firmly fixed are the collected sayings; they are rgiven by sone Shepherd. 12My son, beware of anything beyond these. Of making umany books there is no end, and vmuch study is a weariness of the flesh.
13The end of the matter; all has been heard. wFear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.3 14For xGod will bring every deed into judgment, with4 every secret thing, whether good or evil.
