The wind
<07307>

goeth
<01980> (8802)

toward the south
<01864>_,

and turneth about
<05437> (8802)

unto the north
<06828>_;

it whirleth about continually
<01980> (8802)_,

and the wind
<07307>

returneth again
<07725> (8804)

according to his circuits
<05439>_.

I have seen
<07200> (8804)

all the works
<04639>

that are done
<06213> (8738)

under the sun
<08121>_;

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

of spirit
<07307>_.

and he that regardeth
<07200> (8802)

the clouds
<05645>

shall not reap
<07114> (8799)_.

Ecclesiastes 4:6

4:6

Better
<02896>

[is] an handful
<03709>

[with] quietness
<05183>_,

than both the hands
<02651>

full
<04393>

[with] travail
<05999>

and vexation
<07469>

of spirit
<07307>_.

And this
<02090>

also [is] a sore
<02470> (8802)

evil
<07451>_,

[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 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>_.

Ecclesiastes 2:17

2:17

Therefore I hated
<08130> (8804)

life
<02416>_;

because the work
<04639>

that is wrought
<06213> (8738)

under the sun
<08121>

[is] grievous
<07451>

unto me: for all [is] vanity
<01892>

and vexation
<07469>

of spirit
<07307>_.

Ecclesiastes 6:9

6:9

Better
<02896>

[is] the sight
<04758>

of the eyes
<05869>

than the wandering
<01980> (8800)

of the desire
<05315>_:

this [is] also vanity

and vexation

<06437> (8804)

on all the works

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>_.

Again, I considered
<07200> (8804)

all travail
<05999>_,

and every right
<03788>

work
<04639>_,

that for this a man
<0376>

is envied
<07068>

of his neighbour
<07453>_.

This [is] also vanity
<01892>

and vexation

4:16

[There is] no end
<07093>

[even] of all that have been before
<06440>

them: they also that come after
<0314>

<07475>

of spirit
<07307>_.

that hath power
<07989>

over the spirit

the spirit
<07307>_;

neither [hath he] power
<07983>

in the day
<03117>

of death
<04194>_:

and [there is] no discharge
<04917>

in [that] war
<04421>_;

neither shall wickedness
<07562>

deliver
<04422> (8762)

those that are given
<01167>

to it. {discharge: or, casting off weapons}

11:5

As thou knowest
<03045> (8802)

not what [is] the way
<01870>

of the spirit
<07307>_,

[nor] how the bones
<06106>

[do grow] in the womb
<0990>

of her that is with child
<04392>_:

even so thou knowest
<03045> (8799)

<04639>

of God

who maketh
<06213> (8799)

all.

<05414> (8804)

to a man
<0120>

that [is] good
<02896>

in his sight
<06440>

wisdom
<02451>_,

and knowledge
<01847>_,

and joy
<08057>_:

but to the sinner
<02398> (8802)

he giveth
<05414> (8804)

travail
<06045>_,

to gather
<0622> (8800)

and to heap up
<03664> (8800)_,

that he may give
<05414> (8800)

to [him that is] good
<02896>

before
<06440>

God
<0430>_.

<07307>_.

<0935> (8804)

shall be covered
<03680> (8792)

with darkness
<02822>_.
