I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice, and to do good as long as they live.

That which is has been long ago, and that which is to be has been long ago: and God seeks again that which is passed away.

Therefore I praised the dead who have been long dead more than the living who are yet alive.

Whatever has been, its name was given long ago; and it is known what man is; neither can he contend with him who is mightier than he.

All this have I seen in my days of vanity: there is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man who lives long in his evildoing.

Though a sinner commits crimes a hundred times, and lives long, yet surely I know that it will be better with those who fear God, who are reverent before him.

Also their love, their hatred, and their envy has perished long ago; neither have they any more a portion forever in anything that is done under the sun.
