Ecclesiastes 12:9-14 — The Conclusion
Eccl.12.9-14
9Moreover, because the Teacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; he pondered, searched out, and arranged many proverbs. 10The Teacher sought to find delightful words, and to write accurately words of truth. 11The words of the wise are like goads, and like firmly embedded nails are the collected sayings , given by one Shepherd. 12Furthermore, beyond these, my son, be warned: of making many books there is no end , and much study wearies the body . 13The conclusion of the matter, when all has been heard, is this: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of mankind . 14For God will bring every deed into judgment, along with every hidden thing , whether good or evil.
