Ecclesiastes 12:12-14
Lexham English Bible
12 My son, be careful about anything beyond these things.[a] For the writing of books is endless, and too much study is wearisome.[b]
13 Now that all has been heard, here is the final conclusion:
Fear God and obey his commandments,
for this is the whole duty of man.
14 For God will bring every deed into judgment,
including every secret thing, whether good or evil.
