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}

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}

Ecclesiastes 6:3

6:3

If a man
<0376>

beget
<03205> (8686)

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.

For who knoweth
<03045> (8802)

what [is] good
<02896>

for man
<0120>

in [this] life
<02416>_,

all
<04557>

the days
<03117>

of his vain
<01892>

life
<02416>

which he spendeth
<06213> (8799)

as a shadow
<06738>_?

for who can tell
<05046> (8686)

a man
<0120>

what shall be after
<0310>

him under the sun
<08121>_?

{all...: Heb. the number of the days of the life of his vanity}

Ecclesiastes 7:26

7:26

And I find
<04672> (8802)

more bitter
<04751>

than death
<04194>

the woman
<0802>_,

whose heart
<03820>

[is] snares
<04685>

and nets
<02764>_,

[and] her hands
<03027>

[as] bands
<0612>_:

whoso pleaseth
<02896> <06440>

God
<0430>

shall escape
<04422> (8735)

from her; but the sinner
<02398> (8802)

shall be taken
<03920> (8735)

by her. {whoso...: Heb. he that is good before God}

Ecclesiastes 8:12

8:12

Though a sinner
<02398> (8802)

do
<06213> (8802)

evil
<07451>

an hundred times
<03967>_,

and his [days] be prolonged
<0748> (8688)_,

yet surely I know
<03045> (8802)

that it shall be well
<02896>

with them that fear
<03373>

God
<0430>_,

which fear
<03372> (8799)

before
<06440>

him:

Ecclesiastes 8:15

8:15

Then I commended
<07623> (8765)

mirth
<08057>_,

because a man
<0120>

hath no better thing
<02896>

under the sun
<08121>_,

than to eat
<0398> (8800)_,

and to drink
<08354> (8800)_,

and to be merry
<08055> (8800)_:

for that shall abide
<03867> (8799)

with him of his labour
<05999>

the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>_,

which God
<0430>

giveth
<05414> (8804)

him under the sun
<08121>_.
