<05927> (8802)

of the beast
<0929>

that goeth
<03381> (8802)

to the earth
<0776>_?

<04745>

the sons
<01121>

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>_;

by wisdom
<02451>

concerning all [things] that are done

<05414> (8804)

against an evil
<07451>

work

that God
<0430>

them, and that they might see

more wisdom

unto wine

mine heart

<04672> (8800)

the work
<04639>

that is done
<06213> (8738)

under the sun
<08121>_:

because
<0834>

though
<07945>

a man
<0120>

labour
<05998> (8799)

to seek [it] out
<01245> (8763)_,

[it], yet shall he not be able
<03201> (8799)

to find
<04672> (8800)

[it].
