CHAPTERS

  • Eccl. 1
  • Everything under the sun is vanity and vexation of spirit—He that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.

  • Eccl. 2
  • All the riches and wealth of the king were vanity and vexation of spirit—Wisdom excelleth folly—God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy to man.

  • Eccl. 3
  • To everything there is a season—Whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever—God shall judge the righteous and the wicked.

  • Eccl. 4
  • Oppression and evil work are vanity—The strength of two is better than one—Better is a poor and wise child than an old and foolish king.

  • Eccl. 5
  • God is in heaven—A fool’s voice is known by multitude of words—Keep thy vows—Riches and wealth are the gift of God.

  • Eccl. 6
  • Unless a man’s soul is filled with good, his riches, wealth, honor, and posterity are vanity.

  • Eccl. 7

  • Eccl. 8
  • None have power to avoid death—It shall not be well with the wicked; he turns to pleasure and cannot find wisdom.

  • Eccl. 9
  • God’s providence ruleth over all—Time and chance happen to all men—Wisdom is better than strength—One sinner destroyeth much good.

  • Eccl. 10
  • A little folly destroys the reputation of the wise and honorable—The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious—A fool is full of words.

  • Eccl. 11
  • Do good and give to them that need—God will bring all men to judgment.

  • Eccl. 12
  • At death the spirit shall return to God who gave it—The words of the wise are as goads—The whole duty of man is to fear God and keep his commandments.
