Ecclesiastes 12:11-13

New American Standard Bible

¹¹ The ^(A)words of the wise are like ^[a](B)goads, and masters of these collections are like driven ^(C)nails; they are given by one Shepherd. ¹² But beyond this, my son, be warned: the ^[b]writing of ^(D)many books is endless, and excessive ^(E)study is ^[c]wearying to the body.

¹³ The conclusion, when everything has been heard, is: ^(F)fear God and ^(G)keep His commandments, because this applies to ^(H)every person.
