Ecclesiastes 12:10

American King James Version (1999)

The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.

See the chapter Copy

The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaks frowardness.

A man has joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!

The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words.

The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem.

Truly, truly, I say to you, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and you receive not our witness.

For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof you heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;

This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
