Ecclesiastes 3:9-11

International Standard Version

The Purpose of Life

⁹ What benefit does the worker gain from what he undertakes? ¹⁰ I have observed the burdens placed by God on human beings in order to perfect them. ¹¹ He made everything appropriate in its time. He also placed eternity within them—yet, no person can fully comprehend what God is doing from beginning to end.
