nsb@Ecclesiastes:1:10 @ Is there anything of which it may be said: »See, this is new?« It has already existed in days of old, which were before us.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:1:13 @ I devoted myself to study and explored wisdom concerning all that is done under the heavens. It is a grievous task God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:1:16 @ I said to my heart, »I have become great and have aquired more wisdom than all who were before me in Jerusalem. Yes, my heart has seen an abundance of wisdom and knowledge.«
nsb@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ I went again in search of wisdom and of foolish ways. What can the man do that comes after the king? Only what he has already done.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @ Because there is a man whose work has been done with wisdom, with knowledge, and with an expert hand. But one who has done nothing for it will have it for his heritage. This also is vanity and a great evil.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:2:22 @ What does a man get for all his work, and for the desire of his heart with which he has done his work under the sun?
nsb@Ecclesiastes:2:23 @ All his days are sorrow, and his work is full of grief. Even in the night his heart has no rest. This again is vanity.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:3:10 @ I have seen the task that God has given with which the sons of men are occupied.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:3:15 @ That which is has already been and that which is to be has already been. God seeks what has passed by.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:3:19 @ What happens to the sons of men also happens to animals. As the one dies so the other dies. Yes, they all have one breath so that a man has no advantage over animals. For all is vanity.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:4:3 @ Better off then both of them is the one who has not ever been, who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.
nsb@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ I have learned why people work so hard to succeed. It is because they envy the things their neighbors have. But it is vanity! It is like chasing the wind.![[pBiblx2]](/img/pbiblx2_logo3.png){kind=logo}
