Is there a thing whereof it is said: 'See, this is new'? --it hath been already, in the ages which were before us.

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “which”

And I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven; it is a sore task that God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith.

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “that”

I spoke with my own heart, saying: 'Lo, I have gotten great wisdom, more also than all that were before me over Jerusalem'; yea, my heart hath had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[one] who”

I searched in my heart how to pamper my flesh with wine, and, my heart conducting itself with wisdom, how yet to lay hold on folly, till I might see which it was best for the sons of men that they should do under the heaven the few days of their life.

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

And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them; I withheld not my heart from any joy, for my heart had joy of all my labour; and this was my portion from all my labour.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “that”

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.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[that] which”

I have seen the task which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith.

אֲשֶׁ֨ר 'a.Sher “which”

He hath made every thing beautiful in its time; also He hath set the world in their heart, yet so that man cannot find out the work that God hath done from the beginning even to the end.

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

I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever; nothing can be added to it, nor any thing taken from it; and God hath so made it, that men should fear before Him.

אֲשֶׁ֨ר 'a.Sher “that”

That which is hath been long ago, and that which is to be hath already been; and God seeketh that which is pursued.

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

But I returned and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun; and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power, but they had no comforter.

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “which”

Wherefore I praised the dead that are already dead more than the living that are yet alive;

אֲשֶׁ֛ר 'a.Sher “who”

but better than they both is he that hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that 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 labour.

אֲשֶׁ֧ר 'a.Sher “that”

Better is a poor and wise child than an old and foolish king, who knoweth not how to receive admonition any more.

אֲשֶׁ֛ר 'a.Sher “who”

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “who”

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[those] whom”

When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for He hath no pleasure in fools; pay that which thou vowest.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[that] which”

Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “that”

Behold that which I have seen: it is good, yea, it is comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy pleasure for all his labour, wherein he laboureth under the sun, all the days of his life which God hath given him; for this is his portion.

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

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “whom”

There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is heavy upon men:

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “which”

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

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

Whatsoever cometh into being, the name thereof was given long ago, and it is foreknown what man is; neither can he contend with Him that is mightier than he.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “[that] which”

For who knoweth what is good for man in his life, all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow? for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
