So I returned
<07725> (8804)_,

and considered
<07200> (8799)

all the oppressions
<06217>

that are done
<06213> (8737)

under the sun
<08121>_:

and behold the tears
<01832>

of [such as were] oppressed
<06231> (8803)_,

and they had no comforter
<05162> (8764)_;

and on the side
<03027>

of their oppressors
<06231> (8802)

[there was] power
<03581>_;

but they had no comforter
<05162> (8764)_.

{side: Heb. hand}

Ecclesiastes 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}

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 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>_.
