“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and their actions are evil;

on the entire human race;

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:11 - But as I looked at everything I had worked so hard to accomplish, it was all so meaningless—like chasing the wind. There was nothing really worthwhile anywhere.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:13 - I thought, “Wisdom is better than foolishness, just as light is better than darkness.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:16 - For the wise and the foolish both die. The wise will not be remembered any longer than the fool. In the days to come, both will be forgotten.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:21 - Some people work wisely with knowledge and skill, then must leave the fruit of their efforts to someone who hasn't worked for it. This, too, is meaningless, a great tragedy.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:24 - So I decided there is nothing better than to enjoy food and drink and to find satisfaction in work. Then I realized that these pleasures are from the hand of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:12 - So I concluded there is nothing better than to be happy and enjoy ourselves as long as we can.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:14 - And I know that whatever God does is final. Nothing can be added to it or taken from it. God's purpose is that people should fear him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:22 - So I saw that there is nothing better for people than to be happy in their work. That is why we are here! No one will bring us back from death to enjoy life after we die.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:1 - Again, I observed all the oppression that takes place under the sun. I saw the tears of the oppressed, with no one to comfort them. The oppressors have great power, and their victims are helpless.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:8 - This is the case of a man who is all alone, without a child or a brother, yet who works hard to gain as much wealth as he can. But then he asks himself, “Who am I working for? Why am I giving up so much pleasure now?” It is all so meaningless and depressing.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:9 - Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:12 - People who work hard sleep well, whether they eat little or much. But the rich seldom get a good night's sleep.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:13 - There is another serious problem I have seen under the sun. Hoarding riches harms the saver.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:14 - Money is put into risky investments that turn sour, and everything is lost. In the end, there is nothing left to pass on to one's children.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:1 - There is another serious tragedy I have seen under the sun, and it weighs heavily on humanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:2 - God gives some people great wealth and honor and everything they could ever want, but then he doesn't give them the chance to enjoy these things. They die, and someone else, even a stranger, ends up enjoying their wealth! This is meaningless—a sickening tragedy.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:15 - I have seen everything in this meaningless life, including the death of good young people and the long life of wicked people.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:20 - Not a single person on earth is always good and never sins.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:6 - for there is a time and a way for everything, even when a person is in trouble.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:7 - Indeed, how can people avoid what they don't know is going to happen?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:8 - None of us can hold back our spirit from departing. None of us has the power to prevent the day of our death. There is no escaping that obligation, that dark battle. And in the face of death, wickedness will certainly not rescue the wicked.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:11 - When a crime is not punished quickly, people feel it is safe to do wrong.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:13 - The wicked will not prosper, for they do not fear God. Their days will never grow long like the evening shadows.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:14 - And this is not all that is meaningless in our world. In this life, good people are often treated as though they were wicked, and wicked people are often treated as though they were good. This is so meaningless!
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:15 - So I recommend having fun, because there is nothing better for people in this world than to eat, drink, and enjoy life. That way they will experience some happiness along with all the hard work God gives them under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:16 - In my search for wisdom and in my observation of people's burdens here on earth, I discovered that there is ceaseless activity, day and night.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:1 - This, too, I carefully explored: Even though the actions of godly and wise people are in God's hands, no one knows whether God will show them favor.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:4 - There is hope only for the living. As they say, “It's better to be a live dog than a dead lion!”
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:5 - The living at least know they will die, but the dead know nothing. They have no further reward, nor are they remembered.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:6 - Whatever they did in their lifetime—loving, hating, envying—is all long gone. They no longer play a part in anything here on earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:10 - Whatever you do, do well. For when you go to the grave,[fn] there will be no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:5 - There is another evil I have seen under the sun. Kings and rulers make a grave mistake
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:11 - If a snake bites before you charm it,
what's the use of being a snake charmer?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:5 - Just as you cannot understand the path of the wind or the mystery of a tiny baby growing in its mother's womb,[fn] so you cannot understand the activity of God, who does all things.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:1 - Don't let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, “Life is not pleasant anymore.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:12 - But, my child,[fn] let me give you some further advice: Be careful, for writing books is endless, and much study wears you out.

covered with bruises, welts, and infected wounds—
without any soothing ointments or bandages.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:7 - But he will reply,
“No! I can't help.
I don't have any extra food or clothes.
Don't put me in charge!”
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 6:13 - If even a tenth—a remnant—survive,
it will be invaded again and burned.
But as a terebinth or oak tree leaves a stump when it is cut down,
so Israel's stump will be a holy seed.”
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 8:20 - Look to God's instructions and teachings! People who contradict his word are completely in the dark.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 9:7 - His government and its peace
will never end.
He will rule with fairness and justice from the throne of his ancestor David
for all eternity.
The passionate commitment of the LORD of Heaven's Armies
will make this happen!
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:14 - I have robbed their nests of riches
and gathered up kingdoms as a farmer gathers eggs.
No one can even flap a wing against me
or utter a peep of protest.”
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:31 - Wail at the gates! Weep in the cities!
Melt with fear, you Philistines!
A powerful army comes like smoke from the north.
Each soldier rushes forward eager to fight.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 27:4 - My anger will be gone.
If I find briers and thorns growing,
I will attack them;
I will burn them up—
