Ecclesiastes 12:8 in Context — Ecclesiastes 12
6 Antes que la cadena de plata se quiebre, y se rompa el cuenco de oro, y el cántaro se quiebre junto á la fuente, y la rueda sea rota sobre el pozo;
7 Y el polvo se torne á la tierra, como era, y el espíritu se vuelva á Dios que lo dió.
8 Vanidad de vanidades, dijo el Predicador, todo vanidad.
9 Y cuanto más sabio fué el Predicador, tanto más enseñó sabiduría al pueblo; é hizo escuchar, é hizo escudriñar, y compuso muchos proverbios.
10 Procuró el Predicador hallar palabras agradables, y escritura recta, palabras de verdad.
