Ecclesiastes 2:21

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 3:22

3:22

Wherefore I perceive
<07200> (8804)

that [there is] nothing better
<02896>_,

than that a man
<0120>

should rejoice
<08055> (8799)

in his own works
<04639>_;

for that [is] his portion
<02506>_:

for who shall bring
<0935> (8686)

him to see
<07200> (8800)

what shall be after
<0310>

him?

Ecclesiastes 5:18-19

5:18

Behold [that] which I have seen
<07200> (8804)_:

[it is] good
<02896>

and comely
<03303>

[for one] to eat
<0398> (8800)

and to drink
<08354> (8800)_,

and to enjoy
<07200> (8800)

the good
<02896>

of all his labour
<05999>

that he taketh
<05998> (8799)

under the sun
<08121>

all
<04557>

the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>_,

which God
<0430>

giveth
<05414> (8804)

him: for it [is] his portion
<02506>_.

{It is good...: Heb. there is a good which is comely, etc} {all the days: Heb. the number of the days}

5:19

Every man
<0120>

also to whom God
<0430>

hath given
<05414> (8804)

riches
<06239>

and wealth
<05233>_,

and hath given him power
<07980> (8689)

to eat
<0398> (8800)

thereof, and to take
<05375> (8800)

his portion
<02506>_,

and to rejoice
<08055> (8800)

in his labour
<05999>_;

this
<02090>

[is] the gift
<04991>

of God
<0430>_.
