Ecclesiastes 1:13-17

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}

I communed
<01696> (8765)

with mine own heart
<03820>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Lo, I am come to great estate
<01431> (8689)_,

and have gotten
<03254> (8689)

more wisdom
<02451>

than all [they] that have been before
<06440>

me in Jerusalem
<03389>_:

yea, my heart
<03820>

had great
<07235> (8687)

experience
<07200> (8804)

of wisdom
<02451>

and knowledge
<01847>_.

{had...: Heb. had seen much}

And I gave
<05414> (8799)

my heart
<03820>

to know
<03045> (8800)

wisdom
<02451>_,

and to know
<03045> (8800)

madness
<01947>

and folly
<05531>_:

I perceived
<03045> (8804)

that this
<01571>

also is vexation
<07475>

of spirit
<07307>_.
