H9033–וֹ–o

And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the man do that cometh after the king? even that which hath been already done.

עָשֽׂוּהוּ׃ (הוּ) hu “it”

Yes, I hated all my labor which I had taken under the sun: because I should leave it to the man that shall be after me.

שֶׁ֣אַנִּיחֶ֔נּוּ (נּוּ) nu “it”

For there is a man whose labor is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that hath not labored in it, shall he leave it for his portion. This also is vanity and a great evil.

I have seen the labor, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.

בּֽוֹ׃ (וֹ) o “it”

I know that, whatever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be added to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.

עָלָיו֙ (ו֙) v “it”וּמִמֶּ֖נּוּ (נּוּ) nu “it”

Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?

יְבִיאֶ֙נּוּ֙ (נּוּ֙) nu “him”אַחֲרָֽיו׃ (ו) v “him”

There is one alone, and there is not a second; yes, he hath neither child nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labor; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he, For whom do I labor, and bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity, yes, it is a grievous labor.

ל֗וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him to rise.

And if one prevaileth against him, two shall withstand him; and a three-fold cord is not quickly broken.

יִתְקְפוֹ֙ (וֹ֙) o “him”נֶגְדּ֑וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

I considered all the living who walk under the sun, with the second child that shall stand up in his stead.

תַּחְתָּֽיו׃ (ו) v “him”

There is no end of all the people, even of all that have been before them: they also that come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit.

ב֑וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

When thou vowest a vow to God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed.

לְשַׁלְּמ֔וֹ (וֹ) o “it”

The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whether he eateth little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.

ל֖וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath labored for the wind?

ל֔וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion.

ל֥וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat of it, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God.

ל֣וֹ (וֹ) o “him”וְהִשְׁלִיט֨וֹ (וֹ) o “him”מִמֶּ֙נּוּ֙ (נּוּ֙) nu “it”

A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honor, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat of it, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

ל֣וֹ (וֹ) o “him”יַשְׁלִיטֶ֤נּוּ (נּוּ) nu “him”מִמֶּ֔נּוּ (נּוּ) nu “it”יֹֽאכֲלֶ֑נּוּ (נּוּ) nu “it”

If a man begetteth a hundred children, and liveth many years, so that the days of his years are many, and his soul is not filled with good, and also that he hath no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he.

לּ֑וֹ (וֹ) o “him”מִמֶּ֖נּוּ (נּוּ) nu “him”

Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked?

That which is far off, and exceedingly deep, who can find it out?

Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say to him, what doest thou?

ל֖וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great upon him.

עָלָֽיו׃ (ו) v “him”
