Ecclesiastes 2:24

I explored with my heart how to stimulate my body with wine—while my heart was guiding me wisely—and how to seize simpleminded folly, until I could see where is this good for the sons of men in what they do under heaven the few days of their lives.

I know that there is nothing better for them than to be glad and to do good in one’s lifetime;

moreover, that every man who eats and drinks and sees good in all his labor—it is the gift of God.

I have seen that nothing is better than that man should be glad in his works, for that is his portion. For who will bring him to see what will occur after him?

Here is what I have seen to be good, which is beautiful: to eat, to drink, and to see good in all one’s labor in which he labors under the sun during the few days of his life which God has given him; for this is his portion.

So I laud gladness, for there is nothing good for a man under the sun except to eat and to drink and to be merry, and this will join with him in his labor throughout the days of his life which God has given him under the sun.

Go then, eat your bread in gladness and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already accepted your works.
