Ecclesiastes 9:5-7
New International Reader's Version
5 People who are still alive know they’ll die.
But those who have died don’t know anything.
They don’t receive any more rewards.
And even their name is forgotten.
6 Their love, hate and jealousy disappear.
They will never share again
in anything that happens on earth.
7 Go and enjoy your food. Be joyful as you drink your wine. God has already approved what you do.
