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>_.

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 2:17

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>_.

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

<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>_.

and a great
<07227>

evil
<07451>_.

{leave: Heb. give}

2:23

For all his days
<03117>

grief
<03708>_;

in the night

This is also vanity
<01892>_.

<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

<04745>

the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>

befalleth
<04745>

beasts
<0929>_;

even one thing
<0259>

befalleth
<04745>

them: as the one dieth
<04194>_,

so dieth
<04194>

the other
<02088>_;

yea, they have all one
<0259>

breath
<07307>_;

<0120>

hath no preeminence
<04195>

above a beast

Again, I considered
<07200> (8804)

<03788>

work
<04639>_,

that for this a man

one
<0259>

[alone], and [there is] not a second

yea, he hath neither child
<01121>

nor brother
<0251>_:

yet [is there] no end
<07093>

of all his labour
<05999>_;

neither is his eye
<05869>

satisfied
<07646> (8799)

with riches
<06239>_;

neither [saith he], For whom do I labour

and bereave
<02637> (8764)

my soul
<05315>

of good
<02896>_?

shall not rejoice

and vexation
<07475>

of spirit
<07307>_.

<08055> (8799)

in them all; yet let him remember

of darkness
<02822>_;

from thy flesh

at his best state
