Ecclesiastes 11:7

Julia E. Smith Translation 1876

And the light is sweet, and good to the eyes to see the sun:

See the chapter Copy

Redeem my soul from passing into the pit, and my life shall look upon light

To turn back his soul from the pit, to enlighten with the light of the living.

For thou deliveredst my soul from death: are not my feet from falling, to go about before God in the light of the living?

For Jehovah God a sun and shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; he will not withhold good to those going uprightly.

From the light of the eyes the heart will rejoice: and a good report will fatten the bones.

The poor one and the man of oppressions met together: Jehovah enlightening the eyes of them both.

Till when the sun shall not be darkened, and the light, and the moon, and the stars, and the clouds turned not back after the rain:

Also he saw not the sun, and he knew not rest to this above this.

Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and a remainder to those seeing the sun.

So that ye might be sons of your Father, which in the heavens: for he makes his sun rise upon evil and good, and rains on the just and unjust.
