Ecclesiastes 12:12-14
EasyEnglish Bible

A final message

12 My son, I warn you to be careful about any other teaching. There will always be more and more books to read. If you try to study everything, you will be very weak and tired.

13 Now I have heard everything and this is what I have decided: Respect God and obey his commands. That is God's purpose for all people. 14 Remember that God will judge everything that we do, to see if it is good or it is bad. He knows even the things that we do secretly.

12 Be warned, my son, of anything in addition to them.

Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body.(A)

13 Now all has been heard;
    here is the conclusion of the matter:
Fear God(B) and keep his commandments,(C)
    for this is the duty of all mankind.(D)
14 For God will bring every deed into judgment,(E)
    including every hidden thing,(F)
    whether it is good or evil.
