H0834A–אֲשֶׁר–a.sher

Is there anything of which men say, See, this is new? It has been in the old time which was before us.

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “which”

And I gave my heart to searching out in wisdom all things which are done under heaven: it is a hard thing which God has put on the sons of men to do.

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “that”

I said to my heart, See, I have become great and am increased in wisdom more than any who were before me in Jerusalem--yes, my heart has seen much wisdom and knowledge.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[one] who”

I made a search with my heart to give pleasure to my flesh with wine, still guiding my heart with wisdom, and to go after foolish things, so that I might see what was good for the sons of men to do under the heavens all the days of their life.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “that”אֲשֶׁ֤ר 'a.Sher “which”

And nothing which was desired by my eyes did I keep from them; I did not keep any joy from my heart, because my heart took pleasure in all my work, and this was my reward.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “that”

And I went again in search of wisdom and of foolish ways. What may the man do who comes after the king? The thing which he has done before.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[that] which”

I saw the work which God has put on the sons of man.

אֲשֶׁ֨ר 'a.Sher “which”

He has made everything right in its time; but he has made their hearts without knowledge, so that man is unable to see the works of God, from the first to the last.

אֲשֶׁ֧ר 'a.Sher “which”אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “which”

I am certain that whatever God does will be for ever. No addition may be made to it, nothing may be taken from it; and God has done it so that man may be in fear before him.

אֲשֶׁ֨ר 'a.Sher “that”

Whatever is has been before, and what is to be is now; because God makes search for the things which are past.

וַאֲשֶׁ֥ר (אֲשֶׁ֥ר) 'a.Sher “[that] which”

And again I saw all the cruel things which are done under the sun; there was the weeping of those who have evil done to them, and they had no comforter: and from the hands of the evil-doers there went out power, but they had no comforter.

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “which”

So my praise was for the dead who have gone to their death, more than for the living who still have life.

אֲשֶׁ֛ר 'a.Sher “who”

Yes, happier than the dead or the living seemed he who has not ever been, who has not seen the evil which is done under the sun.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[one] who”אֲשֶׁ֤ר 'a.Sher “[one] who”אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “which”

Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their work.

אֲשֶׁ֧ר 'a.Sher “that”

A young man who is poor and wise is better than a king who is old and foolish and will not be guided by the wisdom of others.

אֲשֶׁ֛ר 'a.Sher “who”

I saw all the living under the sun round the young man who was to be ruler in place of the king.

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “who”

There was no end of all the people, of all those whose head he was, but they who come later will have no delight in him. This again is to no purpose and desire for wind.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[those] whom”

When you take an oath before God, put it quickly into effect, because he has no pleasure in the foolish; keep the oath you have taken.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[that] which”

It is better not to take an oath than to take an oath and not keep it.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “that”

This is what I have seen: it is good and fair for a man to take meat and drink and to have joy in all his work under the sun, all the days of his life which God has given him; that is his reward.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[that] which”אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[that] which”אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “which”

Every man to whom God has given money and wealth and the power to have pleasure in it and to do his part and have joy in his work: this is given by God.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “whom”

There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is hard on men;

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “which”

A man to whom God gives money, wealth, and honour so that he has all his desires but God does not give him the power to have joy of it, and a strange man takes it. This is to no purpose and an evil disease.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “whom”אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “that”

That which is, has been named before, and of what man is there is knowledge. He has no power against one stronger than he.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[that] which”

Who is able to say what is good for man in life all the days of his foolish life which he goes through like a shade? who will say what is to be after him under the sun?
