| Ecc 2:1 | I H589 said H559 in mine heart, H3820 Go to H1980 now, H4994 I will prove H5254 thee with mirth, H8057 therefore enjoy H7200 pleasure: H2896 and, behold, H2009 this H1931 also H1571 is vanity.H1892 |
| Ecc 2:2 | I said H559 of laughter, H7814 It is mad: H1984 and of mirth, H8057 What H4100 doeth H6213 it?H2090 |
| Ecc 2:3 | I sought H8446 in mine heart H3820 to give H4900 (H853) myself H1320 unto wine, H3196 yet acquainting H5090 mine heart H3820 with wisdom; H2451 and to lay hold H270 on folly, H5531 till H5704 H834 I might see H7200 what H335 was that H2088 good H2896 for the sons H1121 of men, H120 which H834 they should do H6213 under H8478 the heaven H8064 all H4557 the days H3117 of their life.H2416 |
| Ecc 2:4 | I made me great H1431 works; H4639 I builded H1129 me houses; H1004 I planted H5193 me vineyards:H3754 |
| Ecc 2:5 | I made H6213 me gardens H1593 and orchards, H6508 and I planted H5193 trees H6086 in them of all H3605 kind of fruits:H6529 |
| Ecc 2:6 | I made H6213 me pools H1295 of water, H4325 to water H8248 therewith H4480 the wood H3293 that bringeth forth H6779 trees:H6086 |
| Ecc 2:7 | I got H7069 me servants H5650 and maidens, H8198 and had H1961 servants born H1121 in my house; H1004 also H1571 I had H1961 great H7235 possessions H4735 of great H1241 and small cattle H6629 above all H4480 H3605 that were H7945 H1961 in Jerusalem H3389 before H6440 me: |
| Ecc 2:8 | I gathered H3664 me also H1571 silver H3701 and gold, H2091 and the peculiar treasure H5459 of kings H4428 and of the provinces: H4082 I gat H6213 me men singers H7891 and women singers, H7891 and the delights H8588 of the sons H1121 of men, H120 as musical instruments, H7705 H7705 and that of all sorts. |
| Ecc 2:9 | So I was great, H1431 and increased more H3254 than all H4480 H3605 that were H7945 H1961 before H6440 me in Jerusalem: H3389 also H637 my wisdom H2451 remained H5975 with me. |
| Ecc 2:10 | And whatsoever H3605 H834 mine eyes H5869 desired H7592 I kept H680 not H3808 from H4480 them, I withheld H4513 not H3808 (H853) my heart H3820 from any H4480 H3605 joy; H8057 for H3588 my heart H3820 rejoiced H8056 in all H4480 H3605 my labour: H5999 and this H2088 was H1961 my portion H2506 of all H4480 H3605 my labour.H5999 |
| Ecc 2:11 | Then I H589 looked H6437 on all H3605 the works H4639 that my hands had wrought, H7945 H6213 H3027 and on the labour H5999 that I had laboured H7945 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 |
| Ecc 2:12 | And I H589 turned H6437 myself to behold H7200 wisdom, H2451 and madness, H1947 and folly: H5531 for H3588 what H4100 can the man H120 do that cometh H7945 H935 after H310 the king? H4428 even(H853) that which H834 hath been already H3528 done.H6213 |
| Ecc 2:13 | Then I H589 saw H7200 that H7945 H3426 wisdom H2451 excelleth H3504 folly, H4480 H5531 as far as light H216 excelleth H3504 darkness. H4480 H2822 |
| Ecc 2:14 | The wise man's H2450 eyes H5869 are in his head; H7218 but the fool H3684 walketh H1980 in darkness: H2822 and I myself H589 perceived H3045 also H1571 that one event H7945 H4745 H259 happeneth H7136 to H854 them all.H3605 |
| Ecc 2:15 | Then said H559 I H589 in my heart, H3820 As it happeneth H4745 to the fool, H3684 so it happeneth H7136 even H1571 to me; and why H4100 was I H589 then H227 more H3148 wise? H2449 Then I said H1696 in my heart, H3820 that this H2088 also H7945 H1571 is vanity.H1892 |
| Ecc 2:16 | For H3588 there is no H369 remembrance H2146 of the wise H2450 more than H5973 of the fool H3684 for ever; H5769 seeing that which now H7945 H3528 is in the days H3117 to come H935 shall all H3605 be forgotten. H7911 And how H349 dieth H4191 the wise H2450 man? as H5973 the fool.H3684 |
| Ecc 2:17 | Therefore I hated H8130 (H853) life; H2416 because H3588 the work H4639 that is wrought H7945 H6213 under H8478 the sun H8121 is grievous H7451 unto H5921 me: for H3588 all H3605 is vanity H1892 and vexation H7469 of spirit.H7307 |
| Ecc 2:18 | Yea, I H589 hated H8130 (H853) all H3605 my labour H5999 which I H7945 H589 had taken H6001 under H8478 the sun: H8121 because I should leave H7945 H5117 it unto the man H120 that shall be H7945 H1961 after H310 me. |
| Ecc 2:19 | And who H4310 knoweth H3045 whether he shall be H1961 a wise H2450 man or H176 a fool? H5530 yet shall he have rule H7980 over all H3605 my labour H5999 wherein I have laboured, H7945 H5998 and wherein I have shewed myself wise H7945 H2449 under H8478 the sun. H8121 This H2088 is also H1571 vanity.H1892 |
| Ecc 2:20 | Therefore I H589 went about H5437 to cause(H853) my heart H3820 to despair H2976 of H5921 all H3605 the labour H5999 which I took H7945 H5998 under H8478 the sun.H8121 |
| Ecc 2:21 | For H3588 there is H3426 a man H120 whose labour H7945 H5999 is in wisdom, H2451 and in knowledge, H1847 and in equity; H3788 yet to a man H120 that hath not H7945 H3808 laboured H5998 therein shall he leave H5414 it for his portion. H2506 This H2088 also H1571 is vanity H1892 and a great H7227 evil.H7451 |
| Ecc 2:22 | For H3588 what H4100 hath H1933 man H120 of all H3605 his labour, H5999 and of the vexation H7475 of his heart, H3820 wherein he H7945 H1931 hath laboured H6001 under H8478 the sun?H8121 |
| Ecc 2:23 | For H3588 all H3605 his days H3117 are sorrows, H4341 and his travail H6045 grief; H3708 yea, H1571 his heart H3820 taketh not H3808 rest H7901 in the night. H3915 This H2088 is also H1571 vanity.H1892 |
| Ecc 2:24 | There is nothing H369 better H2896 for a man, H120 than that he should eat H7945 H398 and drink, H8354 and that he should make his soul(H853) H5315 enjoy H7200 good H2896 in his labour. H5999 This H2090 also H1571 I H589 saw, H7200 that H3588 it H1931 was from the hand H4480 H3027 of God.H430 |
| Ecc 2:25 | For H3588 who H4310 can eat, H398 or who H4310 else can hasten H2363 hereunto, more H2351 than H4480 I? |
| Ecc 2:26 | For H3588 God giveth H5414 to a man H120 that is good H7945 H2896 in his sight H6440 wisdom, H2451 and knowledge, H1847 and joy: H8057 but to the sinner H2398 he giveth H5414 travail, H6045 to gather H622 and to heap up, H3664 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 |
