Ecclesiastes 9:1-2
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Take Life as It Comes
9 All this I laid to heart, examining it all, how the righteous and the wise and their deeds are in the hand of God; whether it is love or hate one does not know. Everything that confronts them 2 is vanity,[a] since the same fate comes to all, to the righteous and the wicked, to the good and the evil,[b] to the clean and the unclean, to those who sacrifice and those who do not sacrifice. As are the good, so are the sinners; those who swear are like those who shun an oath.(A)

A Common Destiny for All
9 So I reflected on all this and concluded that the righteous and the wise and what they do are in God’s hands, but no one knows whether love or hate awaits them.(A) 2 All share a common destiny—the righteous and the wicked, the good and the bad,[a] the clean and the unclean, those who offer sacrifices and those who do not.
As it is with the good,
so with the sinful;
as it is with those who take oaths,
so with those who are afraid to take them.(B)

3 The Lord said to the accuser,[a] “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man who fears God and turns away from evil. He still persists in his integrity, although you incited me against him, to destroy him for no reason.”(A) 4 Then the accuser[b] answered the Lord, “Skin for skin! All that the man has he will give for his life. 5 But stretch out your hand now and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse you to your face.”(B) 6 The Lord said to the accuser,[c] “Very well, he is in your power; only spare his life.”(C)

5 Is not your wickedness great?
There is no end to your iniquities.(A)
6 For you have exacted pledges from your family for no reason
and stripped the naked of their clothing.(B)
7 You have given no water to the weary to drink,
and you have withheld bread from the hungry.(C)
8 The powerful possess the land,
and the favored live in it.
9 You have sent widows away empty-handed,
and the arms of the orphans you have crushed.[a](D)
10 Therefore snares are around you,
and sudden terror overwhelms you,
11 or darkness so that you cannot see;
a flood of water covers you.(E)
12 “Is not God high in the heavens?
See the highest stars, how lofty they are!
13 Therefore you say, ‘What does God know?
Can he judge through the deep darkness?(F)
14 Thick clouds enwrap him, so that he does not see,
and he walks on the dome of heaven.’
15 Will you keep to the old way
that the wicked have trod?
16 They were snatched away before their time;
their foundation was washed away by a flood.(G)
17 They said to God, ‘Leave us alone,’
and ‘What can the Almighty[b] do to us?’[c]
18 Yet he filled their houses with good things—
but the plans of the wicked are repugnant to me.(H)
19 The righteous see it and are glad;
the innocent laugh them to scorn,(I)
20 saying, ‘Surely our adversaries are cut off,
and what they left, the fire has consumed.’(J)
21 “Agree with God,[d] and be at peace;
in this way good will come to you.(K)
22 Receive instruction from his mouth,
and lay up his words in your heart.(L)
23 If you return to the Almighty,[e] you will be restored,
if you remove unrighteousness from your tents,(M)
24 if you treat gold like dust
and gold of Ophir like the stones of the torrent bed,(N)
25 and if the Almighty[f] is your gold
and your precious silver,(O)
26 then you will delight yourself in the Almighty[g]
and lift up your face to God.(P)
27 You will pray to him, and he will hear you,
and you will pay your vows.(Q)
28 You will decide on a matter, and it will be established for you,
and light will shine on your ways.(R)
29 When others are humiliated, you say it is pride,
for he saves the humble.(S)
30 He will deliver even those who are guilty;
they will escape because of the cleanness of your hands.”[h](T)

5 Is not your wickedness great?
Are not your sins(A) endless?(B)
6 You demanded security(C) from your relatives for no reason;(D)
you stripped people of their clothing, leaving them naked.(E)
7 You gave no water(F) to the weary
and you withheld food from the hungry,(G)
8 though you were a powerful man, owning land(H)—
an honored man,(I) living on it.(J)
9 And you sent widows(K) away empty-handed(L)
and broke the strength of the fatherless.(M)
10 That is why snares(N) are all around you,(O)
why sudden peril terrifies you,(P)
11 why it is so dark(Q) you cannot see,
and why a flood of water covers you.(R)
12 “Is not God in the heights of heaven?(S)
And see how lofty are the highest stars!
13 Yet you say, ‘What does God know?(T)
Does he judge through such darkness?(U)
14 Thick clouds(V) veil him, so he does not see us(W)
as he goes about in the vaulted heavens.’(X)
15 Will you keep to the old path
that the wicked(Y) have trod?(Z)
16 They were carried off before their time,(AA)
their foundations(AB) washed away by a flood.(AC)
17 They said to God, ‘Leave us alone!
What can the Almighty do to us?’(AD)
18 Yet it was he who filled their houses with good things,(AE)
so I stand aloof from the plans of the wicked.(AF)
19 The righteous see their ruin and rejoice;(AG)
the innocent mock(AH) them, saying,
20 ‘Surely our foes are destroyed,(AI)
and fire(AJ) devours their wealth.’
21 “Submit to God and be at peace(AK) with him;(AL)
in this way prosperity will come to you.(AM)
22 Accept instruction from his mouth(AN)
and lay up his words(AO) in your heart.(AP)
23 If you return(AQ) to the Almighty, you will be restored:(AR)
If you remove wickedness far from your tent(AS)
24 and assign your nuggets(AT) to the dust,
your gold(AU) of Ophir(AV) to the rocks in the ravines,(AW)
25 then the Almighty will be your gold,(AX)
the choicest silver for you.(AY)
26 Surely then you will find delight in the Almighty(AZ)
and will lift up your face(BA) to God.(BB)
27 You will pray to him,(BC) and he will hear you,(BD)
and you will fulfill your vows.(BE)
28 What you decide on will be done,(BF)
and light(BG) will shine on your ways.(BH)
29 When people are brought low(BI) and you say, ‘Lift them up!’
then he will save the downcast.(BJ)
30 He will deliver even one who is not innocent,(BK)
who will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands.”(BL)
