אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

There is nothing better for a man than taking meat and drink, and having delight in his work. This again I saw was from the hand of God.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

I said in my heart, God will be judge of the good and of the bad; because a time for every purpose and for every work has been fixed by him.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

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.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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.

אֵ֥ת 'et “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And I saw that the cause of all the work and of everything which is done well was man's envy of his neighbour. This again is to no purpose and a desire for wind.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֵת֙ (אֵת֙) 'Et “<obj.>”

The foolish man, folding his hands, takes the flesh of his body for food.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

It is one who is by himself, without a second, and without son or brother; but there is no end to all his work, and he has never enough of wealth. For whom, then, am I working and keeping myself from pleasure? This again is to no purpose, and a bitter wo

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And if one has a fall, the other will give him a hand; but unhappy is the man who is by himself, because he has no helper.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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.

אֵ֥ת 'et “<obj.>”

Let not your mouth make your flesh do evil. And say not before the angel, It was an error. So that God may not be angry with your words and put an end to the work of your hands.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Because much talk comes from dreams and things of no purpose. But let the fear of God be in you.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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.

He will not give much thought to the days of his life; because God lets him be taken up with the joy of his heart.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

The wise are troubled by the ways of the cruel, and the giving of money is the destruction of the heart.

Give thought to the work of God. Who will make straight what he has made bent?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”
