Verse 10 is found in chapter 12 of Ecclesiastes. The epilogue describes Qohelet as someone who sought to arrange and communicate proverbs and words of truth. The image of the words of the wise as goads and firmly fixed nails highlights their ability to provoke reflection and establish teachings. Finally, the human duty is summarized: fear God and keep his commandments, because God will bring every deed into judgment. The book thus ends by integrating its exploration of transience with moral responsibility and divine reverence.
