Bible Reading for June 13


Ecclesiastes 10
[1] Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking
savour: so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour.
[2] A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left.
[3] Yea also, when he that is a fool walketh by the way, his wisdom faileth
him, and he saith to every one that he is a fool. [4] If the spirit of the
ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great
offences. [5] There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as an error
which proceedeth from the ruler:
[6] Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in low place. [7] I have
seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.
[8] He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a
serpent shall bite him.
[9] Whoso removeth stones shall be hurt therewith; and he that cleaveth wood
shall be endangered thereby.
[10] If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to
more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct. [11] Surely the serpent will
bite without enchantment; and a babbler is no better.
[12] The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool will
swallow up himself.
[13] The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his
talk is mischievous madness.
[14] A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what
shall be after him, who can tell him? [15] The labour of the foolish wearieth
every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city.
[16] Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the
morning!
[17] Blessed art thou, O land, when thy king is the son of nobles, and thy
princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness! [18] By much
slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house
droppeth through.
[19] A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth
all things.
[20] Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy
bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath
wings shall tell the matter.

Ecclesiastes 11
[1] Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. [2]
Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil
shall be upon the earth.
[3] If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and if
the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the
tree falleth, there it shall be. [4] He that observeth the wind shall not sow;
and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.
[5] As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do
grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works
of God who maketh all.
[6] In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand:
for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether
they both shall be alike good.
[7] Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold
the sun:
[8] But if a man live many years, and rejoice in them all; yet let him remember
the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh is vanity.
[9] Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the
days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of
thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into
judgment.
[10] Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh:
for childhood and youth are vanity.

Ecclesiastes 12
[1] Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come
not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;
[2] While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened,
nor the clouds return after the rain: [3] In the day when the keepers of the
house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders
cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows be darkened,
[4] And the doors shall be shut in the streets, when the sound of the grinding
is low, and he shall rise up at the voice of the bird, and all the daughters of
musick shall be brought low; [5] Also when they shall be afraid of that which
is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall flourish, and
the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because man goeth to
his long home, and the mourners go about the streets:
[6] Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the
pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. [7] Then
shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto
God who gave it.
[8] Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher; all is vanity. [9] And moreover,
because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he
gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs.
[10] The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was
written was upright, even words of truth. [11] The words of the wise are as
goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from
one shepherd. [12] And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making 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 God, and keep his commandments:
for this is the whole duty of man. [14] For God shall bring every work into
judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
