Ecclesiastes 3:18-21

3:18

I said
<0559> (8804)

in mine heart
<03820>

concerning the estate
<01700>

of the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>_,

that God
<0430>

might manifest
<01305> (8800)

them, and that they might see
<07200> (8800)

that they
<01992>

themselves are beasts
<0929>_.

{that God...: or, that they might clear God, and see, etc}

3:19

For that which befalleth
<04745>

the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>

befalleth
<04745>

beasts
<0929>_;

even one thing
<0259>

befalleth
<04745>

them: as the one dieth
<04194>_,

so dieth
<04194>

the other
<02088>_;

yea, they have all one
<0259>

breath
<07307>_;

so that a man
<0120>

hath no preeminence
<04195>

above a beast
<0929>_:

for all [is] vanity
<01892>_.

3:20

All go
<01980> (8802)

unto one
<0259>

place
<04725>_;

all are of the dust
<06083>_,

and all turn
<07725> (0)

to dust
<06083>

again
<07725> (8804)_.

3:21

Who knoweth
<03045> (8802)

the spirit
<07307>

of man
<01121> <0120>

that goeth
<05927> (8802)

upward
<04605>_,

and the spirit
<07307>

of the beast
<0929>

that goeth
<03381> (8802)

downward
<04295>

to the earth
<0776>_?

{of man: Heb. of the sons of man} {goeth upward: Heb. is ascending, etc}

Ecclesiastes 9:12

9:12

For man
<0120>

also knoweth
<03045> (8799)

not his time
<06256>_:

as the fishes
<01709>

that are taken
<0270> (8737)

in an evil
<07451>

net
<04685>_,

and as the birds
<06833>

that are caught
<0270> (8803)

in the snare
<06341>_;

so
<01992>

[are] the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>

snared
<03369> (8795)

in an evil
<07451>

time
<06256>_,

when it falleth
<05307> (8799)

suddenly
<06597>

upon them.
