Ecclesiastes 7:23

7:23

All this
<02090>

have I proved
<05254> (8765)

by wisdom
<02451>_:

I said
<0559> (8804)_,

I will be wise
<02449> (8799)_;

but it [was] far
<07350>

from me.

Ecclesiastes 2:21

2:21

For there is
<03426>

a man
<0120>

whose labour
<05999>

[is] in wisdom
<02451>_,

and in knowledge
<01847>_,

and in equity
<03788>_;

yet to a man
<0120>

that hath not laboured
<05998> (8804)

therein shall he leave
<05414> (8799)

it [for] his portion
<02506>_.

This also [is] vanity
<01892>

and a great
<07227>

evil
<07451>_.

{leave: Heb. give}

And I gave
<05414> (8804)

my heart
<03820>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

and search out
<08446> (8800)

by wisdom
<02451>

concerning all [things] that are done
<06213> (8738)

under heaven
<08064>_:

this sore
<07451>

travail
<06045>

hath God
<0430>

given
<05414> (8804)

to the sons
<01121>

of man
<0120>

to be exercised
<06031> (8800)

therewith. {to be...: or, to afflict them}

Ecclesiastes 2:3

2:3

I sought
<08446> (8804)

in mine heart
<03820>

to give
<04900> (8800)

myself
<01320>

unto wine
<03196>_,

yet acquainting
<05090> (8802)

mine heart
<03820>

with wisdom
<02451>_;

and to lay hold
<0270> (8800)

on folly
<05531>_,

till I might see
<07200> (8799)

what [was] that good
<02896>

for the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>_,

which they should do
<06213> (8799)

under the heaven
<08064>

all
<04557>

the days
<03117>

of their life
<02416>_.

{to give...: Heb. to draw my flesh with wine} {all...: Heb. the number of the days of their life}
