Ecclesiastes 4:1-4

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}

Wherefore I praised
<07623> (8764)

the dead
<04191> (8801)

which are already
<03528>

dead
<04191> (8804)

more than the living
<02416>

which are yet
<05728>

alive
<02416>_.

Yea, better
<02896>

[is he] than both
<08147>

they, which hath not yet
<05728>

been, who hath not seen
<07200> (8804)

the evil
<07451>

work
<04639>

that is done
<06213> (8738)

under the sun
<08121>_.

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 7:24-26

That which is far off
<07350>_,

and exceeding deep
<06013>_,

who can find it out
<04672> (8799)_?

I applied
<05437> (8804)

mine heart
<03820>

to know
<03045> (8800)_,

and to search
<08446> (8800)_,

and to seek out
<01245> (8763)

wisdom
<02451>_,

and the reason
<02808>

[of things], and to know
<03045> (8800)

the wickedness
<07562>

of folly
<03689>_,

even of foolishness
<05531>

[and] madness
<01947>_:

{I applied...: Heb. I and mine heart compassed}

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}
