<03504>

hath a man
<0120>

of all his labour
<05999>

which he taketh
<05998> (8799)

under the sun
<08121>_?

Ecclesiastes 2:20

2:20

Therefore I went about
<05437> (8804)

to cause
<02976> (0)

my heart
<03820>

to despair
<02976> (8763)

of all the labour
<05999>

which I took
<05998> (8804)

under the sun
<08121>_.

Then I looked
<06437> (8804)

on all the works
<04639>

that my hands
<03027>

had wrought
<06213> (8804)_,

and on the labour
<05999>

that I had laboured
<05998> (8804)

to do
<06213> (8800)_:

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

and vexation
<07469>

of spirit
<07307>_,

and [there was] no profit
<03504>

under the sun
<08121>_.

And who knoweth
<03045> (8802)

whether he shall be a wise

yet shall he have rule
<07980> (8799)

over all my labour
<05999>

wherein I have laboured
<05998> (8804)_,

and wherein I have shewed myself wise
<02449> (8804)

under the sun
<08121>_.

This [is] also 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

{leave: Heb. give}

[that] in all points
<05980>

as he came
<0935> (8804)_,

so shall he go
<03212> (8799)_:

and what profit
<03504>

hath he that hath laboured
<05998> (8799)

for the wind
<07307>_?

and comely
<03303>

[for one] to eat
<0398> (8800)

and to drink
<08354> (8800)_,

and to enjoy
<07200> (8800)

the good
<02896>

of all his labour

that he taketh

under the sun
<08121>

all
<04557>

the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>_,

which God
<0430>

giveth
<05414> (8804)

him: for it [is] his portion
<02506>_.

Ecclesiastes 8:17

8:17

Then I beheld
<07200> (8804)

all the work
<04639>

of God
<0430>_,

that a man
<0120>

cannot
<03201> (8799)

find out
<04672> (8800)

the work
<04639>

that is done
<06213> (8738)

under the sun
<08121>_:

because
<0834>

though
<07945>

a man
<0120>

labour
<05998> (8799)

to seek [it] out
<01245> (8763)_,

yet he shall not find
<04672> (8799)

[it]; yea further; though a wise
<02450>

[man] think
<0559> (8799)

to know
<03045> (8800)

[it], yet shall he not be able
<03201> (8799)

to find
<04672> (8800)

[it].
