<06437> (8804)

myself to behold
<07200> (8800)

wisdom
<02451>_,

and madness
<01947>_,

and folly
<05531>_:

for what [can] the man
<0120>

[do] that cometh
<0935> (8799)

after
<0310>

the king
<04428>_?

[even] that which hath been already
<03528>

done
<06213> (8804)_.

Yea, I hated
<08130> (8804)

all my labour
<05999>

which I had taken

under the sun
<08121>_:

because I should leave

me. {taken: Heb. laboured}

For wisdom
<02451>

[is] a defence

[and] money
<03701>

[is] a defence
<06738>_:

but the excellency
<03504>

of knowledge
<01847>

[is, that] wisdom
<02451>

giveth life
<02421> (8762)

to them that have
<01167>

it. {defence: Heb. shadow}

Ecclesiastes 9:16

9:16

Then said
<0559> (8804)

I, Wisdom
<02451>

[is] better
<02896>

than strength
<01369>_:

nevertheless the poor man's
<04542>

wisdom
<02451>

[is] despised
<0959> (8803)_,

and his words
<01697>

are not heard
<08085> (8737)_.

And further
<03148>_,

by these
<01992>_,

my son
<01121>_,

be admonished
<02094> (8734)_:

of making
<06213> (8800)

many
<07235> (8687)

books
<05612>

[there is] no end
<07093>_;

and much
<07235> (8687)

study
<03854>

[is] a weariness
<03024>

of the flesh
<01320>_.

{study: or, reading}
