So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own desire;

He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them.

The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given to marriage.

For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.

Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure.

He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.

My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread.

For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,

And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.

Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence.

The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want.

Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.

The morsel which thou hast eaten shalt thou vomit up, and lose thy sweet words.

My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:

Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it.

If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:

It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.

Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.

There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.

The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.

Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness.

She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.

There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.

For who can eat, or who else can hasten hereunto, more than I?

And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.

The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.

When goods increase, they are increased that eat them: and what good is there to the owners thereof, saving the beholding of them with their eyes?

The sleep of a labouring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.

All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he hath much sorrow and wrath with his sickness.

Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion.

Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God.

A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun.

Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning!

Blessed art thou, O land, when thy king is the son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!

Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.

I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved.

Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
