excelleth

the dead
<04191> (8801)

more than the living

alive
<02416>_.

<02896>

reward

joined
<02266> (8792) (8675) <0977> (8792)

to all the living
<02416>

there is hope
<0986>_:

for a living
<02416>

dog

For that which befalleth
<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>_;

so that a man
<0120>

hath no preeminence
<04195>

above a beast
<0929>_:

for all [is] vanity
<01892>_.

an hundred
<03967>

[children], and live
<02421> (8799)

many
<07227>

years
<08141>_,

so that the days
<03117>

of his years
<08141>

be many
<07227>_,

and his soul
<05315>

be not filled
<07646> (8799)

with good
<02896>_,

and also [that] he have no burial
<06900>_;

I say
<0559> (8804)_,

[that] an untimely birth
<05309>

[is] better
<02896>

than he.
