Ecclesiastes 9:2 Go deeper

← Ecclesiastes 9 · ← verse 1 · verse 3 →

All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath. (KJV)
