For what H4100 has H1933 man H120 of all H3605 his labor, H5999 and of the vexation H7475 of his heart, H3820 wherein he has labored H6001 under H8478 the sun? H8121

What H4100 profit H3504 has he that works H6213 in that wherein H834 he labors? H6001

And this H2090 also H1571 is a sore H2470 evil, H7451 that in all H3605 points H5980 as he came, H935 so H3651 shall he go: H3212 and what H4100 profit H3504 has he that has labored H5998 for the wind? H7307

Labor H3021 not to be rich: H6238 cease H2308 from your own wisdom. H998

Will you set H5774 your eyes H5869 on that which is not? for riches certainly make H6213 themselves wings; H3671 they fly H5774 away as an eagle H5404 toward heaven. H8064

Why H4100 do you spend H8254 money H3701 for that which is not bread? H3899 and your labor H3018 for that which satisfies H7654 not? listen H8085 diligently to me, and eat H398 you that which is good, H2896 and let your soul H5315 delight H6026 itself in fatness. H1880

Behold, H2009 is it not of the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 that the people H5971 shall labor H3021 in the very H1767 fire, H784 and the people H3816 shall weary H3286 themselves for very H1767 vanity? H7385

What H4100 profits H3276 the graven H6459 image H6755 that the maker H3335 thereof has graven H6458 it; the molten H4541 image, H6755 and a teacher H3384 of lies, H8267 that the maker H3335 of his work H3336 trusts H982 therein, H5921 to make H6213 dumb H483 idols? H457

For what G5101 is a man G444 profited, G5623 if G1437 he shall gain G2770 the whole G3650 world, G2889 and lose G2210 his own soul? G5590 or G2228 what G5101 shall a man G444 give G1325 in exchange G465 for his soul? G5590

For what G5101 shall it profit G5623 a man, G444 if G1437 he shall gain G2770 the whole G3650 world, G2889 and lose G2210 his own soul? G5590

Or G2228 what G5101 shall a man G444 give G1325 in exchange G465 for his soul? G5590

Labor G2038 not for the meat G1035 which G3588 perishes, G622 but for that meat G1035 which G3588 endures G3306 to everlasting G166 life, G2222 which G3739 the Son G5207 of man G444 shall give G1325 to you: for him has God G2316 the Father G3962 sealed. G4972

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

And who H4310 knows H3045 whether he shall be a wise H2450 man or H176 a fool? H5530 yet shall he have rule H7980 over all H3605 my labor H5999 wherein I have labored, H5998 and wherein I have showed myself wise H2449 under H8478 the sun. H8121 This H2088 is also H1571 vanity. H1892

Yes, better H2896 is he than both H8147 they, which H834 has not yet H5728 been, H1961 who H834 has not seen H7200 the evil H7451 work H4639 that is done H6213 under H8478 the sun. H8121

Then I returned, H7725 and I saw H7200 vanity H1892 under H8478 the sun. H8121

Behold H2009 that which H834 I have seen: H7200 it is good H2896 and comely H3303 for one to eat H398 and to drink, H8354 and to enjoy H7200 the good H2896 of all H3605 his labor H5999 that he takes H5998 under H8478 the sun H8121 all H4557 the days H3117 of his life, H2416 which H834 God H430 gives H5414 him: for it is his portion. H2506

For who H4310 knows H3045 what H4100 is good H2896 for man H120 in this life, H2416 all H4557 the days H3117 of his vain H1892 life H2416 which he spends H6213 as a shadow? H6738 for who H4310 can tell H5046 a man H120 what H4100 shall be after H310 him under H8478 the sun? H8121

Wisdom H2451 is good H2896 with an inheritance: H5159 and by it there is profit H3148 to them that see H7200 the sun. H8121

Then I commended H7623 mirth, H8057 because H834 a man H120 has no H369 better H2896 thing under H8478 the sun, H8121 than H3588 H518 to eat, H398 and to drink, H8354 and to be merry: H8055 for that shall abide H3867 with him of his labor H5999 the days H3117 of his life, H2416 which H834 God H430 gives H5414 him under H8478 the sun. H8121

Then I beheld H7200 all H3605 the work H4639 of God, H430 that a man H120 cannot H3808 H3201 find H4672 out the work H4639 that is done H6213 under H8478 the sun: H8121 because H834 though H834 a man H120 labor H5998 to seek H1245 it out, yet he shall not find H4672 it; yes H1571 farther; though H518 a wise H2450 man think H559 to know H3045 it, yet shall he not be able H3201 to find H4672 it.

This H2088 is an evil H7451 among all H3605 things that are done H6213 under H8478 the sun, H8121 that there is one H259 event H4745 to all: H3605 yes, H1571 also H1571 the heart H3820 of the sons H1121 of men H120 is full H4390 of evil, H7451 and madness H1947 is in their heart H3824 while they live, H2416 and after H310 that they go to the dead. H4191

Also H1571 their love, H160 and their hatred, H8135 and their envy, H7068 is now H3528 perished; H6 neither H1571 H369 have they any more H5750 a portion H2506 for ever H5769 in any H3605 thing that is done H6213 under H8478 the sun. H8121

This H2090 wisdom H2451 have I seen H7200 also H1571 under H8478 the sun, H8121 and it seemed great H1419 to me:
