And I gave H5414 my heart H3820 to know H3045 wisdom, H2451 and to know H3045 madness H1947 and folly: H5531 I perceived H3045 that this H2088 also H1571 is vexation H7475 of spirit. H7307

For in much H7230 wisdom H2451 is much H7230 grief: H3708 and he that increases H3254 knowledge H1847 increases H3254 sorrow. H4341

Then I looked H6437 on all H3605 the works H4639 that my hands H3027 had worked, H6213 and on the labor H5999 that I had labored H5998 to do: H6213 and, behold, H2009 all H3605 was vanity H1892 and vexation H7469 of spirit, H7307 and there was no H369 profit H3504 under H8478 the sun. H8121

Therefore I hated H8130 life; H2416 because H3588 the work H4639 that is worked H6213 under H8478 the sun H8121 is grievous H7451 to me: for all H3605 is vanity H1892 and vexation H7469 of spirit. H7307

For God gives H5414 to a man H120 that is good H2896 in his sight H6440 wisdom, H2451 and knowledge, H1847 and joy: H8057 but to the sinner H2398 he gives H5414 travail, H6045 to gather H622 and to heap H3664 up, that he may give H5414 to him that is good H2896 before H6440 God. H430 This H2088 also H1571 is vanity H1892 and vexation H7469 of spirit. H7307

And Solomon's H8010 wisdom H2451 excelled H7227 the wisdom H2451 of all H3605 the children H1121 of the east H6924 country, and all H3605 the wisdom H2451 of Egypt. H4714

And he spoke H1696 three H7969 thousand H505 proverbs: H4912 and his songs H7892 were a thousand H505 and five. H2568

Behold, H2009 you have made H5414 my days H3117 as an handbreadth; H2947 and my age H2465 is as nothing H369 before H5048 you: truly H389 every H3605 man H120 at his best H5324 state H5324 is altogether H3605 vanity. H1892 Selah. H5542

Surely H389 every man H376 walks H1980 in a vain show: H6754 surely H389 they are disquieted H1993 in vain: H1892 he heaps H6651 up riches, and knows H3045 not who H4310 shall gather H622 them.
