⁷ There also you and your households shall eat before the Lord your God, and ^(A)rejoice in all ^[a]your undertakings in which the Lord your God has blessed you.

¹¹ and you shall ^(A)rejoice before the Lord your God, you and your son and your daughter and your male and female servants and ^(B)the Levite who is in your ^[a]town, and ^(C)the stranger and the ^[b]orphan and the widow who are in your midst, in the place where the Lord your God chooses to establish His name.

¹² I know that there is ^(A)nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good in one’s lifetime; ¹³ moreover, that every man who eats and drinks sees good in all his labor—it is the ^(B)gift of God.

¹⁸ Here is what I have seen to be ^(A)good and ^[a]fitting: to eat, to drink and ^[b]enjoy oneself in all one’s labor in which he toils under the sun during the few ^[c]years of his life which God has given him; for this is his ^[d](B)reward. ¹⁹ Furthermore, as for every man to whom ^(C)God has given riches and wealth, He has also ^(D)empowered him to eat from them and to receive his ^[e]reward and rejoice in his labor; this is the ^(E)gift of God. ²⁰ For he will not often ^[f]consider the ^[g]years of his life, because ^(F)God keeps ^[h]him occupied with the gladness of his heart.
