The Futility of All Endeavors
1 The words H1697 of the Preacher H6953, the son H1121 of David H1732, king H4428 in Jerusalem H3389.
2 “Futility H1892 of futilities H1892,” says H559 the Preacher H6953,
“Futility H1892 of futilities H1892! All H3605 is futility H1892.”
3 What H4100 advantage H3504 does a person H120 have in all H3605 his work H5999
Which H7945 he does H5998 under H8478 the sun H8121?
4 A generation H1755 goes H1980 and a generation H1755 comes H935,
But the earth H776 [fn]remains H5975 forever H5769.
5 Also, the sun H8121 rises H2224 and the sun H8121 sets H935;
And [fn]hurrying H7602 to its place H4725 it rises H2224 there H8033 again.
6 [fn]Blowing H1980 toward H413 the south H1864,
Then turning H5437 toward H413 the north H6828,
The wind H7307 continues H1980 [fn]swirling H5437 along H1980;
And on its circular H5439 courses H5439 the wind H7307 returns H7725.
7 All H3605 the rivers H5158 [fn]flow H1980 into the sea H3220,
Yet the sea H3220 is not full H4392.
To the place H4725 where H7945 the rivers H5158 [fn]flow H1980,
There H8033 they [fn]flow H1980 again H7725.
8 All H3605 things H1697 are wearisome H3023;
No H3808 one H376 can H3201 tell H1696 it.
The eye H5869 is H7646 not satisfied H7646 with seeing H7200,
Nor H3808 is the ear H241 filled H4390 with hearing H8085.
9 What H4100 has been H1961, it is what H7945 will be,
And what H4100 has been done H6213, it is what H7945 will be done H6213.
So there H369 is H369 nothing H369 H3605 new H2319 under H8478 the sun H8121.
10 Is H3426 there H3426 anything H1697 of which H7945 one might say H559,
“See H7200 this H2088, it is new H2319”?
It has already H3528 existed H1961 for ages H5769
Which H834 were before H4480 H6440 us.
11 There H369 is H369 no H369 remembrance H2146 of the [fn]earlier H7223 things H7223,
And of the later H314 things H314 as H1571 well H1571, which H7945 will occur H1961,
There will be no H3808 remembrance H2146 of them
Among H5973 those who H7945 will come H1961 later H314 still.
The Futility of Wisdom
12 I, the Preacher H6953, have been H1961 king H4428 over H5921 Israel H3478 in Jerusalem H3389.
13 And I set H5414 my [fn]mind H3820 to seek H1875 and explore H8446 by wisdom H2451 about H5921 everything H3605 that has been done H6213 under H8478 heaven H8064. It is a [fn]sorry H7451 task H6045 with which God H430 has given H5414 the sons H1121 of mankind H120 to be H6031 troubled H6031. 14 I have seen H7200 all H3605 the works H4639 which H7945 have been done H6213 under H8478 the sun H8121, and behold H2009, all H3605 is futility H1892 and striving H7469 after wind H7307. 15 What is crooked H5791 cannot H3201 H3808 be straightened H8626, and what H2642 is H2642 lacking H2642 cannot H3201 H3808 be counted H4487.
16 I [fn]said H1696 to myself H3820, “Behold H2009, I have magnified H1431 and increased H3254 wisdom H2451 more H5921 than H5921 all H3605 who H834 were over H5921 Jerusalem H3389 before H6440 me; and my [fn]mind H3820 has observed H7200 [fn]a wealth H7235 of wisdom H2451 and knowledge H1847.” 17 And I applied H5414 my [fn]mind H3820 to know H3045 wisdom H2451 and to know H3045 insanity H1947 and foolishness H5531; I realized H3045 that this H2088 also H1571 is striving H7475 after wind H7307. 18 Because H3588 in much H7230 wisdom H2451 there is much H7230 grief H3708; and increasing H3254 knowledge H1847 results in increasing H3254 pain H4341.
