Eccles. 12:13 in context
The whole interlinear chapter
Eccles. 12:12      Eccles. 12:14

Ecclesiastes 12:13

The final word—when [the entirety of] everything has been heard [the summary when we have taken in the whole message is then]:
Fear (revere) God (Elohim) and keep his commandments (clear commands—Hebr. mitzvot),
for this applies to all people.
[The last line reads literally "this is the whole man" and can be interpreted as applying to all people (Rom. 3:29), is the duty of all people, or that it concerns what is important for the whole man. In the next sentence (verse 14), Col. — the Hebrew word that can be translated as "all/every/whole/everyone" — appears twice more. This fourfold repetition emphasizes that the only thing that really matters here on earth is to fear God and obey him, see also Matt. 6:33.]
