Under Water Life

OUR BODY in Ecclesiastes


FLESH

Ecclesiastes 2:3  I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding me with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, until I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their life.

Ecclesiastes 4:5  The fool folds his hands together, and eats his own flesh.

Ecclesiastes 5:6 Do not let your mouth to cause your flesh to sin; neither say you before the angel, that is was an error: wherefore should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

Ecclesiastes 11:10 Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, and put away evil from your flesh; for youth and the dawn of life are vanity.

Ecclesiastes 12:12 And furthermore, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh.

 

HAND

Ecclesiastes 2:11 Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labor that I had labored to do; and, behold, all was vanity and a striving after wind, and there was no profit under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 2:24 There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and make his soul enjoy good in his labor.  This also I saw, that it is from the hand of God.

Ecclesiastes 4:5  The fool folds his hands together, and eats his own flesh.

Ecclesiastes 4:6  Better is a handful, with quietness, than two handfuls with labor and striving after wind.

Ecclesiastes 5:6 Do not let your mouth to cause your flesh to sin; neither say you before the angel, that is was an error: wherefore should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

Ecclesiastes 5:14 and those riches perish by evil adventure, and if he has begotten a son, there is nothing in his hand.

Ecclesiastes 5:15 As he came forth from his mother's womb, naked shall he go again as he came, and shall take nothing for his labor, which he may carry away in his hand.

Ecclesiastes 7:18 It is good that you should take hold of this; yes, also from that you do not withdraw your hand: for he that fears God shall come forth from them all.

Ecclesiastes 7:26 And I find more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, and whose hands are bands: whoever pleases God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.

Ecclesiastes 9:1  For all this I laid to my heart, even to explore all this: that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God; whether it be love or hatred, man does not know it; all is before them.

Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatsoever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in Sheol, where you go.

Ecclesiastes 10:2  A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left.

Ecclesiastes 10:18 By slothfulness the roof sinks in, and through idleness of the hands, the house leaks.

Ecclesiastes 11:6  In the morning sow your seed, and in the evening do not withhold your hand; for you do not know which shall prosper, whether this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.

 

EYE & SEE

Ecclesiastes 1:8  All things are full of weariness; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.

Ecclesiastes 1:10 Is there a thing whereof it may be said, “See, this is new?”  It has been long ago, in the ages which were before us.

Ecclesiastes 1:14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.

Ecclesiastes 2:3  I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding me with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, until I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their life.

Ecclesiastes 2:10 And whatsoever my eyes desired I did not keep from them; I did not withhold my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced because of all my labor, and this was my portion from all my labor.

Ecclesiastes 2:14 The wise man's eyes are in his head, and the fool walks in darkness, and yet I perceived that one event happens to them all.

Ecclesiastes 2:16 For of the wise man, even as of the fool, there is no remembrance forever; seeing that in the days to come all will have been long forgotten.  And how does the wise man die even as the fool!

Ecclesiastes 2:18 And I hated all my labor wherein I labored under the sun, seeing that I must leave it to the man that shall be after me.

Ecclesiastes 3:10 I have seen the travail which God has given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith.

Ecclesiastes 3:18 I said in my heart, “It is because of the sons of men, that God may prove them, and that they may see that they themselves are but as beasts.”

Ecclesiastes 3:22 Wherefore I saw that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him back to see what shall be after him?

Ecclesiastes 4:3 yes, better than them both did I esteem him that has not yet been, who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 4:8  There is one that is alone, and he has not a second; yes, he has neither son nor brother; yet is there no end of all his labor, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches.  “For whom then,”  he said, “do I labor, and deprive my soul of good?”  This also is vanity, yes, it is a sore travail.

Ecclesiastes 5:8  If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent taking away of justice and righteousness in a province, do not marvel at the matter: for one higher than the high regards, and there are higher than they.

Ecclesiastes 5:11 When goods increase, they are increased that eat them, and what advantage is there to the owner thereof, save the beholding of them with his eyes?

Ecclesiastes 5:13 There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun, namely, riches kept by the owner thereof to his hurt:

 5:14 and those riches perish by evil adventure, and if he has begotten a son, there is nothing in his hand.

Ecclesiastes 5:18 Behold, that which I have seen to be good and to be comely is for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy good in all his labor, wherein he labors under the sun, all the days of his life which God has given him: for this is his portion.

Ecclesiastes 6:1  There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is heavy upon men:

 6:2  a man to whom God gives riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing for his soul of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to eat thereof, but an alien eats it; this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

Ecclesiastes 6:5  moreover it has not seen the sun nor known it; this has rest rather than the other:

 6:6 yes, though he live a thousand years twice fold, and yet enjoy no good, do not all go to one place?

Ecclesiastes 6:9  Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this also is vanity and a striving after wind.

Ecclesiastes 6:11 Seeing there are many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?

Ecclesiastes 7:11 Wisdom is as good as an inheritance; yes, more excellent is it for them that see the sun.

Ecclesiastes 7:15 All this have I seen in my days of vanity.  There is a righteous man that perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongs his life in his evil-doing.

Ecclesiastes 8:9  All this have I seen, and applied my heart to every work that is done under the sun: there is a time wherein one man has power over another to his hurt.

Ecclesiastes 8:16 When I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done upon the earth (for also there is that neither day nor night sees sleep with his eyes),

 8:17 then I beheld all the work of God, that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because however much a man labor to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yes moreover, though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it.

Ecclesiastes 9:13 I have also seen wisdom under the sun on this wise, and it seemed great to me:

 9:14 There was a little city, and few men within it, and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it.

Ecclesiastes 10:5  There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as it were an error which proceeds from the ruler:

 10:6  folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in a low place.

Ecclesiastes 10:7  I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking like servants upon the earth.

Ecclesiastes 11:7  Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun.

Ecclesiastes 11:9  Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth, and walk in the ways of your heart, and in the sight of your eyes; but know you, that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.

 

EAR & HEAR

Ecclesiastes 1:8  All things are full of weariness; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.

Ecclesiastes 5:1  Keep your foot when you go to the house of God; for to draw near to hear is better than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they do not know that they do evil.

Ecclesiastes 7:5  It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.

Ecclesiastes 7:21 Also do not take heed to all words that are spoken, less you hear your servant curse you;

 7:22 for oftentimes also your own heart knows that you yourself likewise have cursed others.

Ecclesiastes 9:16 Then said I, “Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.”

Ecclesiastes 9:17 The words of the wise heard in quiet are better than the cry of him that rules among fools.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 This is the end of the matter; all has been heard: fear God, and keep His commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.
