2:26 |
For to the man, to the one good before his face, he gave wisdom, and knowledge, and gladness. And to the one sinning, he gave distraction to be added and to bring together; so as to give to the good man before the face of God. For even indeed this is folly and resolve of spirit.

God has given, to the man who is good in his sight, wisdom, and knowledge, and rejoicing. But to the sinner, he has given affliction and needless worrying, so as to add, and to gather, and to deliver, to him who has pleased God. But this, too, is emptiness and a hollow worrying of the mind.
