- જીવતાઓ જાણે છે કે તેઓ મરવાના છે. પરંતુ મૃત્યુ પામેલાઓ કશું જાણતા નથી. તેઓને હવે પછી કોઈ બદલો મળવાનો નથી. તેઓની સ્મૃતિ પણ નાશ પામે છે.
- हिन्दी — सभोपदेशक ९:५
- क्योंकि जीविते तो इतना जानते हैं कि वे मरेंगे, परन्तु मरे हुए कुछ भी नहीं जानते, और न उनको कुछ और बदला मिल सकता है, क्योंकि उनका स्मरण मिट गया है।
In context
3This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that there is one event to all. Yes also, the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.
4For to him who is joined with all the living there is hope; for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
5For the living know that they will die, but the dead don’t know anything, neither do they have any more a reward; for their memory is forgotten.
6Also their love, their hatred, and their envy has perished long ago; neither do they any longer have a portion forever in anything that is done under the sun.
7Go your way—eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already accepted your works.
