6:2

A man
<0376>

to whom God
<0430>

hath given
<05414> (8799)

riches
<06239>_,

wealth
<05233>_,

and honour
<03519>_,

so that he wanteth
<02638>

nothing for his soul
<05315>

of all that he desireth
<0183> (8691)_,

yet God
<0430>

giveth him not power
<07980> (8686)

to eat
<0398> (8800)

thereof, but a stranger
<0376> <05237>

eateth
<0398> (8799)

it: this [is] vanity
<01892>_,

and it [is] an evil
<07451>

disease
<02483>_.

Ecclesiastes 1:8

1:8

All things
<01697>

[are] full of labour
<03023>_;

man
<0376>

cannot
<03201> (8799)

utter
<01696> (8763)

[it]: the eye
<05869>

is not satisfied
<07646> (8799)

with seeing
<07200> (8800)_,

nor the ear
<0241>

filled
<04390> (8735)

with hearing
<08085> (8800)_.

Ecclesiastes 9:15

9:15

Now there was found
<04672> (8804)

in it a poor
<04542>

wise
<02450>

man
<0376>_,

and he by his wisdom
<02451>

delivered
<04422> (8765)

the city
<05892>_;

yet no man
<0120>

remembered
<02142> (8804)

that same poor
<04542>

man
<0376>_.

Ecclesiastes 4:4

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}

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.
