Ecclesiastes 2:1

I said
<0559> (8804)

in mine heart
<03820>_,

Go to now
<03212> (8798)_,

I will prove
<05254> (8762)

thee with mirth
<08057>_,

therefore enjoy
<07200> (8798)

pleasure
<02896>_:

and, behold, this also [is] vanity
<01892>_.

Ecclesiastes 2:7-8

I got
<07069> (8804)

[me] servants
<05650>

and maidens
<08198>_,

and had servants born
<01121>

in my house
<01004>_;

also I had great
<07235> (8687)

possessions
<04735>

of great
<01241>

and small cattle
<06629>

above all that were in Jerusalem
<03389>

before
<06440>

me: {servants born...: Heb. sons of my house}

I gathered
<03664> (8804)

me also silver
<03701>

and gold
<02091>_,

and the peculiar treasure
<05459>

of kings
<04428>

and of the provinces
<04082>_:

I gat
<06213> (8804)

me men singers
<07891> (8802)

and women singers
<07891> (8802)_,

and the delights
<08588>

of the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>_,

[as] musical instruments
<07705> <07705>_,

and that of all sorts. {musical...: Heb. musical instrument and instruments}

Ecclesiastes 2:14-15

The wise man's
<02450>

eyes
<05869>

[are] in his head
<07218>_;

but the fool
<03684>

walketh
<01980> (8802)

in darkness
<02822>_:

and I myself perceived
<03045> (8804)

also that one
<0259>

event
<04745>

happeneth
<07136> (8799)

to them all.

Then
<0227>

said
<0559> (8804)

I in my heart
<03820>_,

As it happeneth
<04745>

to the fool
<03684>_,

so it happeneth
<07136> (8799)

even to me
<01571>_;

and why was I then more
<03148>

wise
<02449> (8804)_?

Then I said
<01696> (8765)

in my heart
<03820>_,

that this also [is] vanity
<01892>_.

{happeneth even...: Heb. happeneth to me, even to me}

Ecclesiastes 2:19

And who knoweth
<03045> (8802)

whether he shall be a wise
<02450>

[man] or a fool
<05530>_?

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

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
<07451>_.

{leave: Heb. give}

Ecclesiastes 2:24

[There is] nothing better
<02896>

for a man
<0120>_,

[than] that he should eat
<0398> (8799)

and drink
<08354> (8804)_,

and [that] he should make his soul
<05315>

enjoy
<07200> (8689)

good
<02896>

in his labour
<05999>_.

This
<02090>

also I saw
<07200> (8804)_,

that it [was] from the hand
<03027>

of God
<0430>_.

{should make...: or, delight his senses}

Ecclesiastes 5:10

He that loveth
<0157> (8802)

silver
<03701>

shall not be satisfied
<07646> (8799)

with silver
<03701>_;

nor he that loveth
<0157> (8802)

abundance
<01995>

with increase
<08393>_:

this [is] also vanity
<01892>_.

Ecclesiastes 7:21

Also take
<05414> (8799)

no heed
<03820>

unto all words
<01697>

that are spoken
<01696> (8762)_;

lest thou hear
<08085> (8799)

thy servant
<05650>

curse
<07043> (8764)

thee: {take...: Heb. give not thine heart}

Ecclesiastes 8:10

And so
<03651>

I saw
<07200> (8804)

the wicked
<07563>

buried
<06912> (8803)_,

who had come
<0935> (8804)

and gone
<01980> (8762)

from the place
<04725>

of the holy
<06918>_,

and they were forgotten
<07911> (8691)

in the city
<05892>

where they had so done
<06213> (8804)_:

this [is] also vanity
<01892>_.
