KJV - Ecclesiastes 8:15
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.
Then I praised happiness, because enjoying food, drinks, and having fun is the best thing in life. This helps people enjoy their work and live happily each day, as God gives us life under the sun.
