Ecclesiastes 2:1-11 I said in my heart, Come now, I will test thee with mirth, therefore see pleasure: and, behold, this also is vanity.

1 H559 [H8804] I said H3820 in my heart, H3212 [H8798] Come now, H5254 [H8762] I will test H8057 thee with mirth, H7200 [H8798] therefore see H2896 pleasure: H1892 and, behold, this also is vanity.

2 H559 [H8804] I said H7814 of laughter, H1984 [H8781] It is mad: H8057 and of mirth, H2090 What H6213 [H8802] doeth it?

3 H8446 [H8804] I sought H3820 in my heart H4900 [H8800] to give H1320 myself H3196 to wine, H5090 [H8802] yet acquainting H3820 my heart H2451 with wisdom; H270 [H8800] and to lay hold H5531 on folly, H7200 [H8799] till I might see H2896 what was that good H1121 for the sons H120 of men, H6213 [H8799] which they should do H8064 under the heaven H4557 all H3117 the days H2416 of their life.

4 H1431 [H8689] I made for myself great H4639 works; H1129 [H8804] I built H1004 houses; H5193 [H8804] I planted H3754 vineyards:

5 H6213 [H8804] I made H1593 me gardens H6508 and orchards, H5193 [H8804] and I planted H6086 trees H6529 in them of all kind of fruits:

6 H6213 [H8804] I made H1295 me pools H4325 of water, H8248 [H8687] to water H3293 with them the wood H6779 [H8802] that bringeth forth H6086 trees:

7 H7069 [H8804] I procured H5650 me male H8198 and female servants, H1121 and had servants born H1004 in my house; H7235 [H8687] also I had great H4735 possessions H1241 of herds H6629 and flocks H3389 above all that were in Jerusalem H6440 at the face of me:

8 H3664 [H8804] I gathered H3701 me also silver H2091 and gold, H5459 and the special treasure H4428 of kings H4082 and of the provinces: H6213 [H8804] I procured H7891 [H8802] me male H7891 [H8802] and female singers, H8588 and the delights H1121 of the sons H120 of men, H7705 as musical instruments, and of all sorts.

9 H1431 [H8804] So I was great, H3254 [H8689] and increased H6440 more than all that were at the face of H3389 me in Jerusalem: H2451 also my wisdom H5975 [H8804] remained with me.

10 H5869 And whatever my eyes H7592 [H8804] desired H680 [H8804] I kept H4513 [H8804] not from them, I withheld H3820 not my heart H8057 from any joy; H3820 for my heart H8056 rejoiced H5999 in all my labour: H2506 and this was my portion H5999 of all my labour.

11 H6437 [H8804] Then I looked H4639 on all the works H3027 that my hands H6213 [H8804] had wrought, H5999 and on the labour H5998 [H8804] that I had laboured H6213 [H8800] to do: H1892 and, behold, all was vanity H7469 and vexation H7307 of spirit, H3504 and there was no profit H8121 under the sun.
