Ecclesiastes 12:14 For God will bring euery worke vnto iudgement, with euery secret thing, whether it be good or euill.

Study Lenses

The verse centers on "bring", "euery", "worke", "vnto", "iudgement", "secret", and "whether". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "bring" and "euery", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The prior verse says "Let vs heare the end of all...", giving immediate footing for "bring" and "euery". In Ecclesiastes context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "bring" and "euery" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
