14I have known that all that God doth is to the age, to it nothing is to be added, and from it nothing is to be withdrawn; and God hath wrought that they do fear before Him.
15What is that which hath been? already it is, and that which [is] to be hath already been, and God requireth that which is pursued.
16And again, I have seen under the sun the place of judgment -- there [is] the wicked; and the place of righteousness -- there [is] the wicked.
17I said in my heart, `The righteous and the wicked doth God judge, for a time [is] to every matter and for every work there.`
18I said in my heart concerning the matter of the sons of man that God might cleanse them, so as to see that they themselves [are] beasts.
19For an event [is to] the sons of man, and an event [is to] the beasts, even one event [is] to them; as the death of this, so [is] the death of that; and one spirit [is] to all, and the advantage of man above the beast is nothing, for the whole [is] vanity.
20The whole are going unto one place, the whole have been from the dust, and the whole are turning back unto the dust.
