Ecclesiastes 2:17-20
17So I hatedH8130 lifeH2416, becauseH3588 the workH4639 that is doneH6213 underH8478 the sunH8121 was grievousH7451 to meH5921. ForH3588 everythingH3605 is futileH1892 and a pursuitH7469 of the windH7307.
18IH589 hatedH8130 allH3605 for whichH589 I had toiledH5999H6001 underH8478 the sunH8121, because I must leave itH5117 to the manH120 who comesH1961 after meH310. 19And whoH4310 knowsH3045 whether that man will beH1961 wiseH2450 orH176 foolishH5530? Yet he will takeH7980 over allH3605 the laborH5999 at which I have workedH5998 skillfullyH2449 underH8478 the sunH8121. ThisH2088 tooH1571 is futileH1892.
20SoH589 my heartH3820 beganH5437 to despairH2976 overH5921 allH3605 the laborH5999 that I had doneH5998 underH8478 the sunH8121.
