Ecclesiastes 6:7-12
7AllH3605 the labour of manH120 is for his mouthH6310, and yet the appetiteH5315 is notH3808 filledH4390. 8For whatH4100 advantageH3148 hath the wiseH2450 moreH4480 thanH4480 the foolH3684? or whatH4100 hath the poorH6041 manH2450, that knoweth to walkH1980 beforeH5048 the livingH2416? 9BetterH2896 is the sightH5869 of the eyesH5869 thanH2896 the wandering of the desireH5315: this also is vanityH1892 and a strivingH7469 afterH7469 windH7307. 10Whatsoever hath been, the nameH8034 thereof was givenH7121 longH4100 ago, and it is knownH3045 that it is manH120: neitherH3808 canH3201 he contend with him that is mightier thanH4480 he. 11SeeingH3588 there be manyH7235 things that increaseH7235 vanityH1892, whatH4100 is manH120 the better? 12For who knoweth whatH4100 is goodH2896 for manH120 in his lifeH3117, allH3117 the daysH3117 of his vainH1892 lifeH3117 whichH834 he spendeth as a shadowH6738? for who canH4310 tellH5046 a manH120 whatH4100 shall be afterH310 him underH8478 the sunH8121?
