Ecclesiastes 3:13 in Context — Ecclesiastes 3
11 Todo lo hizo hermoso en su tiempo: y aun el mundo dió en su corazón, de tal manera que no alcance el hombre la obra de Dios desde el principio hasta el cabo.
12 Yo he conocido que no hay mejor para ellos, que alegrarse, y hacer bien en su vida:
13 Y también que es don de Dios que todo hombre coma y beba, y goce el bien de toda su labor.
14 He entendido que todo lo que Dios hace, eso será perpetuo: sobre aquello no se añadirá, ni de ello se disminuirá; y hácelo Dios, para que delante de él teman los hombres.
15 Aquello que fué, ya es: y lo que ha de ser, fué ya; y Dios restaura lo que pasó.
