- આ બધું મેં મારા વ્યર્થપણાના દિવસોમાં જોયું છે. એટલે નેક પોતાની નેકીમાં મૃત્યુ પામે છે, અને દુષ્ટ માણસ પોતાની દુષ્ટતા હોવા છતાં લાંબુ આયુષ્ય ભોગવે છે.
- हिन्दी — सभोपदेशक ७:१५
- अपने व्यर्थ जीवन में मैंने यह सब कुछ देखा है; कोई धर्मी अपने धार्मिकता का काम करते हुए नाश हो जाता है, और दुष्ट बुराई करते हुए दीर्घायु होता है।
In context
13Consider the work of God, for who can make that straight which he has made crooked?
14In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider; yes, God has made the one side by side with the other, to the end that man should not find out anything after him.
15All this I have seen in my days of vanity: there is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man who lives long in his evildoing.
16Don’t be overly righteous, neither make yourself overly wise. Why should you destroy yourself?
17Don’t be too wicked, neither be foolish. Why should you die before your time?
