Ecclesiastes 2

CKJV_Strongs(i)
  1 H559 I said H3820 in my heart, H3212 Go to now, H5254 I will prove H8057 you with mirth, H7200 therefore enjoy H2896 pleasure: H1892 and, behold, this also is vanity.
  2 H559 I said H7814 of laughter, H1984 It is mad: H8057 and of mirth, H2090 What H6213 does it?
  3 H8446 I sought H3820 in my heart H4900 to give H1320 myself H3196 unto wine, H5090 yet acquainting H3820 my heart H2451 with wisdom; H270 and to lay hold H5531 on wickedness, H7200 until I might see H2896 what was that good H1121 for the sons H120 of men, H6213 which they should do H8064 under the heaven H4557 all H3117 the days H2416 of their life.
  4 H1431 I made for me great H4639 works; H1129 I built H1004 houses; H5193 I planted H3754 vineyards:
  5 H6213 I made H1593 for me gardens H6508 and orchards, H5193 and I planted H6086 trees H6529 in them of all kind of fruits:
  6 H6213 I made H1295 for me pools H4325 of water, H8248 to water H3293 with it the wood H6779 that brings forth H6086 trees:
  7 H7069 I got H5650 for me servants H8198 and maidens, H1121 and had servants born H1004 in my house; H7235 also I had great H4735 possessions H1241 of great H6629 and small cattle H3389 above all that were in Jerusalem H6440 before me:
  8 H3664 I gathered H3701 for me also silver H2091 and gold, H5459 and the peculiar treasure H4428 of kings H4082 and of the provinces: H6213 I got H7891 me men singers H7891 and women singers, H8588 and the delights H1121 of the sons H120 of men, H7705 as musical instruments, and that of all sorts.
  9 H1431 So I was great, H3254 and increased H6440 more than all that were before H3389 me in Jerusalem: H2451 also my wisdom H5975 remained with me.
  10 H5869 And whatever my eyes H7592 desired H680 I kept H4513 not from them, I withheld H3820 not my heart H8057 from any joy; H3820 for my heart H8056 rejoiced H5999 in all my labor: H2506 and this was my portion H5999 of all my labor.
  11 H6437 Then I looked H4639 on all the works H3027 that my hands H6213 had done, H5999 and on the labor H5998 that I had labored H6213 to do: H1892 and, behold, all was vanity H7469 and vexation H7307 of spirit, H3504 and there was no profit H8121 under the sun.
  12 H6437 And I turned H7200 myself to behold H2451 wisdom, H1947 and madness, H5531 and wickedness: H120 for what can the man H935 do that comes H310 after H4428 the king? H3528 even that which has been already H6213 done.
  13 H7200 Then I saw H3426 that H2451 wisdom H3504 excels H5531 wickedness, H216 as far as light H3504 excels H2822 darkness.
  14 H2450 The wise man's H5869 eyes H7218 are in his head; H3684 but the fool H1980 walks H2822 in darkness: H3045 and I myself perceived H259 also that one H4745 event H7136 happens to them all.
  15 H227 Then H559 said H3820 I in my heart, H4745 As it happens H3684 to the fool, H7136 so it happens H1571 even to me; H3148 and why was I then more H2449 wise? H1696 Then I said H3820 in my heart, H1892 that this also is vanity.
  16 H2146 For there is no memory H2450 of the wise H5973 more than H3684 of the fool H5769 for ever; H3528 seeing that which now H3117 is in the days H935 to come H7911 shall all be forgotten. H4191 And how dies H2450 the wise H3684 man? as the fool.
  17 H8130 Therefore I hated H2416 life; H4639 because the work H6213 that is done H8121 under the sun H7451 is grievous H1892 unto me: for all is vanity H7469 and vexation H7307 of spirit.
  18 H8130 Yes, I hated H5999 all my labor H6001 which I had taken H8121 under the sun: H3240 because I should leave H120 it unto the man H310 that shall be after me.
  19 H3045 And who knows H2450 whether he shall be a wise H5530 man or a fool? H7980 yet shall he have rule H5999 over all my labor H5998 where I have labored, H2449 and where I have showed myself wise H8121 under the sun. H1892 This is also vanity.
  20 H5437 Therefore I went about H2976 to cause H3820 my heart H2976 to despair H5999 of all the labor H5998 which I took H8121 under the sun.
  21 H3426 For there is H120 a man H5999 whose labor H2451 is in wisdom, H1847 and in knowledge, H3788 and in equity; H120 yet to a man H5998 that has not labored H5414 in it shall he leave H2506 it for his portion. H1892 This also is vanity H7227 and a great H7451 evil.
  22 H1933 For what has H120 man H5999 of all his labor, H7475 and of the vexation H3820 of his heart, H1931 where H6001 he has labored H8121 under the sun?
  23 H3117 For all his days H4341 are sorrows, H6045 and his hardship H3708 grief; H3820 Yes, his heart H7901 takes not rest H3915 in the night. H1892 This is also vanity.
  24 H2896 There is nothing better H120 for a man, H398 than that he should eat H8354 and drink, H5315 and that he should make his soul H7200 enjoy H2896 good H5999 in his labor. H2090 This H7200 also I saw, H3027 that it was from the hand H430 of God.
  25 H398 For who can eat, H2363 or who else can hasten H2351 hereunto, more than I?
  26 H5414 For God gives H120 to a man H2896 that is good H6440 in his sight H2451 wisdom, H1847 and knowledge, H8057 and joy: H2398 but to the sinner H5414 he gives H6045 hardship, H622 to gather H3664 and to heap up, H5414 that he may give H2896 to him that is good H6440 before H430 God. H1892 This also is vanity H7469 and vexation H7307 of spirit.
