Ecclesiastes 3:10-22

I have seen
<07200> (8804)

the travail
<06045>_,

which God
<0430>

hath given
<05414> (8804)

to the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>

to be exercised
<06031> (8800)

in it.

He hath made
<06213> (8804)

every [thing] beautiful
<03303>

in his time
<06256>_:

also he hath set
<05414> (8804)

the world
<05769>

in their heart
<03820>_,

so that
<01097>

no man
<0120>

can find out
<04672> (8799)

the work
<04639>

that God
<0430>

maketh
<06213> (8804)

from the beginning
<07218>

to the end
<05490>_.

I know
<03045> (8804)

that [there is] no good
<02896>

in them, but for [a man] to rejoice
<08055> (8800)_,

and to do
<06213> (8800)

good
<02896>

in his life
<02416>_.

And also that every man
<0120>

should eat
<0398> (8799)

and drink
<08354> (8804)_,

and enjoy
<07200> (8804)

the good
<02896>

of all his labour
<05999>_,

it [is] the gift
<04991>

of God
<0430>_.

I know
<03045> (8804)

that, whatsoever God
<0430>

doeth
<06213> (8799)_,

it shall be for ever
<05769>_:

nothing
<0369>

can be put
<03254> (8687)

to it, nor any thing taken
<01639> (8800)

from it: and God
<0430>

doeth
<06213> (8804)

[it], that [men] should fear
<03372> (8799)

before
<06440>

him.

That which hath been is now
<03528>_;

and that which is to be hath already
<03528>

been; and God
<0430>

requireth
<01245> (8762)

that which is past
<07291> (8737)_.

{that which is past: Heb. that which is driven away}

And moreover I saw
<07200> (8804)

under the sun
<08121>

the place
<04725>

of judgment
<04941>_,

[that] wickedness
<07562>

[was] there; and the place
<04725>

of righteousness
<06664>_,

[that] iniquity
<07562>

[was] there.

I said
<0559> (8804)

in mine heart
<03820>_,

God
<0430>

shall judge
<08199> (8799)

the righteous
<06662>

and the wicked
<07563>_:

for [there is] a time
<06256>

there for every purpose
<02656>

and for every work
<04639>_.

I said
<0559> (8804)

in mine heart
<03820>

concerning the estate
<01700>

of the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>_,

that God
<0430>

might manifest
<01305> (8800)

them, and that they might see
<07200> (8800)

that they
<01992>

themselves are beasts
<0929>_.

{that God...: or, that they might clear God, and see, etc}

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>_.

All go
<01980> (8802)

unto one
<0259>

place
<04725>_;

all are of the dust
<06083>_,

and all turn
<07725> (0)

to dust
<06083>

again
<07725> (8804)_.

Who knoweth
<03045> (8802)

the spirit
<07307>

of man
<01121> <0120>

that goeth
<05927> (8802)

upward
<04605>_,

and the spirit
<07307>

of the beast
<0929>

that goeth
<03381> (8802)

downward
<04295>

to the earth
<0776>_?

{of man: Heb. of the sons of man} {goeth upward: Heb. is ascending, etc}

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?
