Ecclesiastes 9:5-7

Easy-to-Read Version

⁵ The living know that they will die, but the dead don’t know anything. They have no more reward. People will soon forget them. ⁶ After people are dead, their love, hate, and jealousy are all gone. And they will never again share in what happens on earth.

Enjoy Life While You Can

⁷ So go and eat your food now and enjoy it. Drink your wine and be happy. It is all right with God if you do these things.
