Remember
<02142> (8798)

now thy Creator
<01254> (8802)

while the evil

<0935> (8799)

not, nor the years

draw nigh
<05060> (8689)_,

I have no pleasure
<02656>

in them;

<07200> (8804)

that
<03426>

wisdom
<02451>

excelleth
<03504>

folly
<05531>_,

as far as light
<0216>

excelleth
<03504>

darkness
<02822>_.

I said
<0559> (8804)

in mine heart
<03820>_,

Go to now
<03212> (8798)_,

I will prove
<05254> (8762)

thee with mirth
<08057>_,

therefore enjoy
<07200> (8798)

pleasure
<02896>_:

and, behold, this also [is] vanity
<01892>_.

Ecclesiastes 2:21

2:21

For there is
<03426>

a man
<0120>

whose labour
<05999>

[is] in wisdom
<02451>_,

and in knowledge
<01847>_,

and in equity
<03788>_;

yet to a man
<0120>

that hath not laboured
<05998> (8804)

therein shall he leave
<05414> (8799)

it [for] his portion
<02506>_.

This also [is] vanity
<01892>

and a great
<07227>

evil
<07451>_.

{leave: Heb. give}
