3:9	What hath a man more of his trauel?
3:10	I siy the turment, which God yaf to the sones of men, that thei be occupied therynne.
3:11	God made alle thingis good in her tyme, and yaf the world to disputyng of hem, that a man fynde not the werk which God hath wrouyt fro the bigynnyng `til in to the ende.
3:12	And Y knew that no thing was betere `to a man, `no but to be glad, and to do good werkis in his lijf.
3:13	For whi ech man that etith and drinkith, and seeth good of his trauel; this is the yifte of God.
3:14	I haue lerned that alle werkis, whiche God made, lasten stidfastli `til in to with outen ende; we moun not adde ony thing to tho, nether take awei fro tho thingis, whiche God made, that he be dred.
3:15	That thing that is maad, dwellith perfitli; tho thingis that schulen come, weren bifore; and God restorith that, that is goon.
3:16	I siy vndur sunne vnfeithfulnesse in the place of doom; and wickidnesse in the place of riytfulnesse.
3:17	And Y seide in myn herte, The Lord schal deme a iust man, and an vnfeithful man; and the tyme of ech thing schal be thanne.
3:18	I seide in myn herte of the sones of men, that God schulde preue hem, and schewe that thei ben lijk vnresonable beestis.
3:19	Therfor oon is the perisching of man and of beestis, and euene condicioun is of euer eithir; as a man dieth, `so and tho beestis dien; alle beestis brethen in lijk maner, and a man hath no thing more than a beeste.
3:20	Alle thingis ben suget to vanyte, and alle thingis goen to o place; tho ben maad of erthe, and tho turnen ayen togidere in to erthe.
3:21	Who knowith, if the spirit of the sones of Adam stieth vpward, and if the spirit of beestis goith dounward?
3:22	And Y perseyuede that no thing is betere, than that a man be glad in his werk, and that this be his part; for who schal brynge hym, that he knowe thingis that schulen come after hym?


3:1	To all things there is an appointed time, and a time to euery purpose vnder the heauen.
3:2	A time to bee borne, and a time to die: a time to plant, and a time to plucke vp that which is planted.
3:3	A time to slay, and a time to heale: a time to breake downe, and a time to builde.
3:4	A time to weepe, and a time to laugh: a time to mourne, and a time to dance.
3:5	A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones: a time to embrace, and a time to be farre from embracing.
3:6	A time to seeke, and a time to lose: a time to keepe, and a time to cast away.
3:7	A time to rent, and a time to sowe: a time to keepe silence, and a time to speake.
3:8	A time to loue, and a time to hate: a time of warre, and a time of peace.
3:9	What profite hath hee that worketh of the thing wherein he trauaileth?
3:10	I haue seene the trauaile that God hath giuen to ye sonnes of men to humble them thereby.
3:11	He hath made euery thing beautifull in his time: also he hath set the worlde in their heart, yet can not man finde out the worke that God hath wrought from the beginning euen to the end.
3:12	I know that there is nothing good in them, but to reioyce, and to doe good in his life.
3:13	And also that euery man eateth and drinketh, and seeth the commoditie of all his labour. this is the gift of God.
3:14	I knowe that whatsoeuer God shall doe, it shalbe for euer: to it can no man adde, and from it can none diminish: for God hath done it, that they should feare before him.
3:15	What is that that hath bene? that is nowe: and that that shalbe, hath now bene: for God requireth that which is past.
3:16	And moreouer I haue seene vnder the sunne the place of iudgement, where was wickednesse, and the place of iustice where was iniquitie.
3:17	I thought in mine heart, God wil iudge the iust and the wicked: for time is there for euery purpose and for euery worke.
3:18	I considered in mine heart the state of the children of men that God had purged them: yet to see to, they are in themselues as beastes.
3:19	For the condition of the children of men, and the condition of beasts are euen as one condition vnto them. As the one dyeth, so dyeth the other: for they haue all one breath, and there is no excellency of man aboue ye beast: for all is vanitie.
3:20	All goe to one place, and all was of the dust, and all shall returne to the dust.
3:21	Who knoweth whether the spirit of man ascend vpward, and the spirit of the beast descend downeward to the earth?
3:22	Therefore I see that there is nothing better then that a man shoulde reioyce in his affaires, because that is his portion. For who shall bring him to see what shalbe after him?
