- Eccl 2:1-9 : 1 I said{H559}{(H8804)} in mine heart{H3820}, Go to now{H3212}{(H8798)}, I will prove{H5254}{(H8762)} thee with mirth{H8057}, therefore enjoy{H7200}{(H8798)} pleasure{H2896}: and, behold, this also is vanity{H1892}. 2 I said{H559}{(H8804)} of laughter{H7814}, It is mad{H1984}{(H8781)}: and of mirth{H8057}, What{H2090} doeth{H6213}{(H8802)} it? 3 I sought{H8446}{(H8804)} in mine heart{H3820} to give{H4900}{(H8800)} myself{H1320} unto wine{H3196}, yet acquainting{H5090}{(H8802)} mine heart{H3820} with wisdom{H2451}; and to lay hold{H270}{(H8800)} on folly{H5531}, till I might see{H7200}{(H8799)} what was that good{H2896} for the sons{H1121} of men{H120}, which they should do{H6213}{(H8799)} under the heaven{H8064} all{H4557} the days{H3117} of their life{H2416}. 4 I made me great{H1431}{(H8689)} works{H4639}; I builded{H1129}{(H8804)} me houses{H1004}; I planted{H5193}{(H8804)} me vineyards{H3754}: 5 I made{H6213}{(H8804)} me gardens{H1593} and orchards{H6508}, and I planted{H5193}{(H8804)} trees{H6086} in them of all kind of fruits{H6529}: 6 I made{H6213}{(H8804)} me pools{H1295} of water{H4325}, to water{H8248}{(H8687)} therewith the wood{H3293} that bringeth forth{H6779}{(H8802)} trees{H6086}: 7 I got{H7069}{(H8804)} me servants{H5650} and maidens{H8198}, and had servants born{H1121} in my house{H1004}; also I had great{H7235}{(H8687)} possessions{H4735} of great{H1241} and small cattle{H6629} above all that were in Jerusalem{H3389} before{H6440} me: 8 I gathered{H3664}{(H8804)} me also silver{H3701} and gold{H2091}, and the peculiar treasure{H5459} of kings{H4428} and of the provinces{H4082}: I gat{H6213}{(H8804)} me men singers{H7891}{(H8802)} and women singers{H7891}{(H8802)}, and the delights{H8588} of the sons{H1121} of men{H120}, as musical instruments{H7705}{H7705}, and that of all sorts. 9 So I was great{H1431}{(H8804)}, and increased{H3254}{(H8689)} more than all that were before{H6440} me in Jerusalem{H3389}: also my wisdom{H2451} remained{H5975}{(H8804)} with me. 10 And whatsoever mine eyes{H5869} desired{H7592}{(H8804)} I kept{H680}{(H8804)} not from them, I withheld{H4513}{(H8804)} not my heart{H3820} from any joy{H8057}; for my heart{H3820} rejoiced{H8056} in all my labour{H5999}: and this was my portion{H2506} of all my labour{H5999}. 11 Then I looked{H6437}{(H8804)} on all the works{H4639} that my hands{H3027} had wrought{H6213}{(H8804)}, and on the labour{H5999} that I had laboured{H5998}{(H8804)} to do{H6213}{(H8800)}: and, behold, all was vanity{H1892} and vexation{H7469} of spirit{H7307}, and there was no profit{H3504} under the sun{H8121}. 12 And I turned{H6437}{(H8804)} myself to behold{H7200}{(H8800)} wisdom{H2451}, and madness{H1947}, and folly{H5531}: for what can the man{H120} do that cometh{H935}{(H8799)} after{H310} the king{H4428}? even that which hath been already{H3528} done{H6213}{(H8804)}.
