Ecclesiastes 2:3

2:3

I sought
<08446> (8804)

in mine heart
<03820>

to give
<04900> (8800)

myself
<01320>

unto wine
<03196>_,

yet acquainting
<05090> (8802)

mine heart
<03820>

with wisdom
<02451>_;

and to lay hold
<0270> (8800)

on folly
<05531>_,

till I might see
<07200> (8799)

what [was] that good
<02896>

for the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>_,

which they should do
<06213> (8799)

under the heaven
<08064>

all
<04557>

the days
<03117>

of their life
<02416>_.

{to give...: Heb. to draw my flesh with wine} {all...: Heb. the number of the days of their life}

Ecclesiastes 2:26

2:26

For [God] giveth
<05414> (8804)

to a man
<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
<0430>_.

This also [is] vanity
<01892>

and vexation
<07469>

of spirit
<07307>_.

{in his...: Heb. before him}

Ecclesiastes 4:4

4:4

Again, I considered
<07200> (8804)

all travail
<05999>_,

and every right
<03788>

work
<04639>_,

that for this a man
<0376>

is envied
<07068>

of his neighbour
<07453>_.

This [is] also vanity
<01892>

and vexation
<07469>

of spirit
<07307>_.

{every...: Heb. all the rightness of work} {for this...: Heb. this is the envy of a man from his neighbour}

Ecclesiastes 4:16

4:16

[There is] no end
<07093>

of all the people
<05971>_,

[even] of all that have been before
<06440>

them: they also that come after
<0314>

shall not rejoice
<08055> (8799)

in him. Surely this also [is] vanity
<01892>

and vexation
<07475>

of spirit
<07307>_.

Ecclesiastes 5:19

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>_.

<0376>

to whom God
<0430>

hath given
<05414> (8799)

riches
<06239>_,

wealth
<05233>_,

and honour
<03519>_,

so that he wanteth
<02638>

nothing for his soul
<05315>

of all that he desireth
<0183> (8691)_,

yet God
<0430>

giveth him not power
<07980> (8686)

to eat
<0398> (8800)

thereof, but a stranger
<0376> <05237>

eateth
<0398> (8799)

it: this [is] vanity
<01892>_,

and it [is] an evil
<07451>

disease
<02483>_.

Ecclesiastes 8:9

8:9

All this have I seen
<07200> (8804)_,

and applied
<05414> (8800)

my heart
<03820>

unto every work
<04639>

that is done
<06213> (8738)

under the sun
<08121>_:

[there is] a time
<06256>

wherein one man
<0120>

ruleth
<07980> (8804)

over another to his own hurt
<07451>_.

There is
<03426>

a vanity
<01892>

which is done
<06213> (8738)

upon the earth
<0776>_;

that there be just
<06662>

[men], unto whom it happeneth
<05060> (8688)

according to the work
<04639>

of the wicked
<07563>_;

again, there be
<03426>

wicked
<07563>

[men], to whom it happeneth
<05060> (8688)

according to the work
<04639>

of the righteous
<06662>_:

I said
<0559> (8804)

that this also
<01571>

[is] vanity
<01892>_.

9:3

This [is] an evil
<07451>

among all [things] that are done
<06213> (8738)

under the sun
<08121>_,

that [there is] one
<0259>

event
<04745>

unto all: yea, also the heart
<03820>

of the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>

is full
<04390> (8804)

of evil
<07451>_,

and madness
<01947>

[is] in their heart
<03824>

while they live
<02416>_,

and after
<0310>

that [they go] to the dead
<04191> (8801)_.
