Ecclesiastes 12

[8] Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher; all is vanity

[11] The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd.

[13] Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

Take your pick here...I love em all.
