In context

14I know that whatsoever things God has done, They shall be forever: It is impossible to add to it, And it is impossible to take away from it: And God has done it, that men may fear before him.

15That which has been is now; And whatever things are appointed to be have already been; And God will seek out that which is past.

— Ecclesiastes 3:16 —

17And I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the ungodly: For there is a time there for every action And for every work.

18I said in my heart, Concerning the speech of the sons of man, God will judge them, And that to show that they are beasts.
