Proverbs 23:5

23:5

Wilt thou set
<05774> (8686) (8675) <05774> (8799)

thine eyes
<05869>

upon that which is not? for [riches] certainly
<06213> (8800)

make
<06213> (8799)

themselves wings
<03671>_;

they fly away
<05774> (8799) (8675) <05774> (8687)

as an eagle
<05404>

toward heaven
<08064>_.

{set...: Heb. cause thine eyes to fly upon}

Ecclesiastes 4:8

4:8

There is
<03426>

one
<0259>

[alone], and [there is] not a second
<08145>_;

yea, he hath neither child
<01121>

nor brother
<0251>_:

yet [is there] no end
<07093>

of all his labour
<05999>_;

neither is his eye
<05869>

satisfied
<07646> (8799)

with riches
<06239>_;

neither [saith he], For whom do I labour
<06001>_,

and bereave
<02637> (8764)

my soul
<05315>

of good
<02896>_?

This [is] also vanity
<01892>_,

yea, it [is] a sore
<07451>

travail
<06045>_.

Ecclesiastes 5:10-16

5:10

He that loveth
<0157> (8802)

silver
<03701>

shall not be satisfied
<07646> (8799)

with silver
<03701>_;

nor he that loveth
<0157> (8802)

abundance
<01995>

with increase
<08393>_:

this [is] also vanity
<01892>_.

5:11

When goods
<02896>

increase
<07235> (8800)_,

they are increased
<07231> (8804)

that eat
<0398> (8802)

them: and what good
<03788>

[is there] to the owners
<01167>

thereof, saving
<0518>

the beholding
<07207> (8675) <07212> (8801)

[of them] with their eyes
<05869>_?

5:12

The sleep
<08142>

of a labouring man
<05647> (8802)

[is] sweet
<04966>_,

whether he eat
<0398> (8799)

little
<04592>

or much
<07235> (8687)_:

but the abundance
<07647>

of the rich
<06223>

will not suffer
<03240> (8688)

him to sleep
<03462> (8800)_.

5:13

There is
<03426>

a sore
<02470> (8802)

evil
<07451>

[which] I have seen
<07200> (8804)

under the sun
<08121>_,

[namely], riches
<06239>

kept
<08104> (8803)

for the owners
<01167>

thereof to their hurt
<07451>_.

5:14

But those riches
<06239>

perish
<06> (8804)

by evil
<07451>

travail
<06045>_:

and he begetteth
<03205> (8689)

a son
<01121>_,

and [there is] nothing
<03972>

in his hand
<03027>_.

5:15

As he came forth
<03318> (8804)

of his mother's
<0517>

womb
<0990>_,

naked
<06174>

shall he return
<07725> (8799)

to go
<03212> (8800)

as he came
<0935> (8804)_,

and shall take
<05375> (8799)

nothing
<03972>

of his labour
<05999>_,

which he may carry away
<03212> (8686)

in his hand
<03027>_.

5:16

And this
<02090>

also [is] a sore
<02470> (8802)

evil
<07451>_,

[that] in all points
<05980>

as he came
<0935> (8804)_,

so shall he go
<03212> (8799)_:

and what profit
<03504>

hath he that hath laboured
<05998> (8799)

for the wind
<07307>_?

Ecclesiastes 5:1

5:1

Keep
<08104> (8798)

thy foot
<07272>

when thou goest
<03212> (8799)

to the house
<01004>

of God
<0430>_,

and be more ready
<07138>

to hear
<08085> (8800)_,

than to give
<05414> (8800)

the sacrifice
<02077>

of fools
<03684>_:

for they consider
<03045> (8802)

not that they do
<06213> (8800)

evil
<07451>_.

Ecclesiastes 6:9-10

6:9

Better
<02896>

[is] the sight
<04758>

of the eyes
<05869>

than the wandering
<01980> (8800)

of the desire
<05315>_:

this [is] also vanity
<01892>

and vexation
<07469>

of spirit
<07307>_.

{than...: Heb. than the walking of the soul}

6:10

That which hath been is named
<07121> (8738) <08034>

already
<03528>_,

and it is known
<03045> (8737)

that it [is] man
<0120>_:

neither may
<03201> (8799)

he contend
<01777> (8800)

with him that is mightier
<08623>

than he.

Ecclesiastes 6:1

6:1

There is
<03426>

an evil
<07451>

which I have seen
<07200> (8804)

under the sun
<08121>_,

and it [is] common
<07227>

among men
<0120>_:
