1: Who [is]H4310 like a wise [man]H2450 and whoH4310 knowsH3045 the interpretationH6592 of a thing?H1697 wisdomH2451 of a manH0120 makes shine,H0215 his faceH6440 and the sternnessH5797 of his faceH6440 is changed.H8132
2: I [say]H0589 commandment,H6310 of the kingH4428 KeepH8104 forH5921 the sakeH1700 of your oath toH7621 God.H0430
3: NotH0408 do be hastyH0926 from his presence-H6440 to goH1980 notH0408 do take your standH5975 for an thing-H1697 evilH7451 forH3588 allH3605 whateverH0834 pleases himH2654 he does.H6213
4: WhereH0834 the wordH1697 of a kingH4428 [is there is] power,H7983 and whoH4310 may sayH0559 whatH4100 are you doing.H6213
5: He who keepsH8104 his commandH4687 nothingH3808 will experienceH3045 thing,H1697 harmfulH7451 and both timeH6256 and judgment.H4941 And discernsH3045 heartH3820 of a wise man.H2450
6: BecauseH3588 for everyH3605 matterH2656 there isH3426 a timeH6256 and judgment,H4941 ThoughH3588 the miseryH7451 of manH0120 [increases] greatlyH7227 on.H5921
7: ForH3588 notH0369 he does knowH3045 whatH4100 will happen,H1961 soH3588 whenH0834 it will occur?H1961 whoH4310 can tellH5046
8: NoH0369 oneH0120 has powerH7989 over the spiritH7307 to retainH3607 -H0853 the spirit-H7307 and no oneH0369 has powerH7983 in the dayH3117 of death-H4194 and [There is] noH0369 releaseH4917 from that war-H4421 and notH3808 will deliverH4422 wickednessH7562 -H0853 those who are given to it.H1167
9: ThisH0853 allH3605 and thisH2088 I have seen,H7200 and appliedH5414 to everyH0853 my heartH3820 to everyH3605 workH4639 thatH0834 is doneH6213 underH8478 the sun-H8121 [There is] a timeH6256 in whichH0834 rulesH7980 one manH0120 over anotherH0120 To hurtH7451
10: andH3651 I sawH7200 the wickedH7563 buried,H6912 and who had comeH0935 and from the placeH4725 of holiness,H6918 goneH1980 and they were forgottenH7911 in the cityH5892 whereH0834 soH3651 they had done-H6213 alsoH1571 thisH2088 [is] vanity.H1892
11: BecauseH0834 notH0369 is executedH6213 the sentence againstH6599 workH4639 an evilH7451 speedily,H4120 uponH5921 thusH3651 is fully setH4390 the heartH3820 of the sonsH1121 of menH0120 to doH6213 evil.H7451
12: ThoughH0834 a sinnerH2398 doesH6213 evilH7451 a hundred [times],H3967 and are prolonged,H0748 yetH3588 surelyH1571 knowH3045 IH0589 thatH0834 it will beH1961 wellH2896 with those who fearH3372 God,H0430 whoH0834 fearH3372 before Him.H6440
13: But wellH2896 notH3808 it will beH1961 with the wicked,H7563 norH3808 will he prolongH0748 [his] days,H3117 [which are] as a shadow-H6738 becauseH0834 notH0369 he does fearH3373 beforeH6440 God.H0430
14: There isH3426 a vanityH1892 whichH0834 occursH6213 onH5921 earth-H0776 thatH0834 there areH3426 just [men]H6662 to whomH0834 it happensH5060 accordingH0413 to the workH4639 of the wicked-H7563 and again there areH3426 wicked [men]H7563 to whom it happensH5060 untoH0413 according to the workH4639 of the righteous-H6662 I saidH0559 that alsoH1571 thisH2088 [is] vanity.H1892
15: So commendedH7623 IH0589 -H0853 enjoyment,H8057 becauseH0834 has nothingH0369 betterH2896 a manH0120 underH8478 the sun,H8121 thanH3588 thanH0518 to eat,H0398 and drink,H8354 and be merry,H8055 for thatH1931 will remain with himH3867 in his laborH5999 [all] the daysH3117 of his life,H2416 whichH0834 givesH5414 GodH0430 underH8478 the sun.H8121
16: WhenH0834 I appliedH5414 -H0853 my heartH3820 to knowH3045 wisdom,H2451 and to seeH7200 -H0853 the businessH6045 thatH0834 is doneH6213 onH5921 earth-H0776 forH3588 even thoughH1571 dayH3117 or nightH3915 sleepH8142 with his eyesH5869 noH0369 one sees.H7200
17: Then I sawH7200 -H0853 allH3605 the workH4639 of God,H0430 thatH3588 notH3808 cannotH3201 a manH0120 find outH4672 -H0853 the workH4639 thatH0834 is doneH6213 underH8478 the sun.H8121 ForH7945 thoughH0834 laborsH5998 a manH0120 to discover [it],H1245 and yet notH3808 he will find [it]H4672 and moreoverH1571 thoughH0518 attemptsH0559 a wise [man]H2450 to know [it]H3045 notH3808 he will be ableH3201 to find [it].H4672
