God’s Ways Are Mysterious
14 There is a futility that is done on the earth: There are righteous [men] who get what the actions of the wicked [deserve], and there are wicked [men] who get what the actions of the righteous deserve. I say that this too is futile.
15 So I commended the enjoyment of life, because there is nothing better for a man under the sun than to eat and drink and be merry. For this [joy] will accompany him in his labor during the days of his life that God gives him under the sun.
16 When I applied my mind to know wisdom and to observe the task that one performs on the earth—though his eyes do not see sleep in the day or even in the night—17 I saw every work of God, and that a man is unable to comprehend the work that is done under the sun. Despite [his] efforts to search it out, he cannot find [its meaning]; even if the wise man claims to know, he is unable to comprehend.
