Ecclesiastes 1:12-15

I the Preacher
<06953>

was king
<04428>

over Israel
<03478>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And I gave
<05414> (8804)

my heart
<03820>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

and search out
<08446> (8800)

by wisdom
<02451>

concerning all [things] that are done
<06213> (8738)

under heaven
<08064>_:

this sore
<07451>

travail
<06045>

hath God
<0430>

given
<05414> (8804)

to the sons
<01121>

of man
<0120>

to be exercised
<06031> (8800)

therewith. {to be...: or, to afflict them}

I have seen
<07200> (8804)

all the works
<04639>

that are done
<06213> (8738)

under the sun
<08121>_;

and, behold, all [is] vanity
<01892>

and vexation
<07469>

of spirit
<07307>_.

[That which is] crooked
<05791> (8794)

cannot
<03201> (8799)

be made straight
<08626> (8800)_:

and that which is wanting
<02642>

cannot
<03201> (8799)

be numbered
<04487> (8736)_.

{that which is wanting: Heb. defect}
