9 And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed and sought out and composed many proverbs. 10 The Preacher sought to find agreeable words; and he wrote uprightly the words of truth. 11 The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails deeply fastened, which are arranged by workmen and given from one master builder. 12 Furthermore, my son, take heed; of writing many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh. 13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear the LORD and keep his commandments; this is given by one Master to every man. 14 For the LORD shall bring every work into judgment, concerning everything which is hidden and known, whether it be good or whether it be evil.
