24 ^rThere is nothing better for a person than that he should ^seat and drink and find enjoyment¹ in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God,

12 I perceived that ^ythere is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to ^zdo good as long as they live;

15 And I commend joy, for man has ⁿnothing better under the sun but to ^oeat and drink and be joyful, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of his life that God has given him under the sun.
