Ecclesiastes 12:12-14
New American Standard Bible

12 But beyond this, my son, be warned: the [a]writing of (A)many books is endless, and excessive (B)study is [b]wearying to the body.

13 The conclusion, when everything has been heard, is: (C)fear God and (D)keep His commandments, because this applies to (E)every person. 14 For (F)God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.

    whether it is good or evil.
