H0853–אֵת–et

I find more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and traps, whose hands are chains. Whoever pleases God shall escape from her; but the sinner will be ensnared by her.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Behold, this only have I found: that God made man upright; but they search for many schemes.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

There is no man who has power over the spirit to contain the spirit; neither does he have power over the day of death. There is no discharge in war; neither shall wickedness deliver those who practice it.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

All this have I seen, and applied my mind to every work that is done under the sun. There is a time in which one man has power over another to his hurt.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then I commended mirth, because a man has no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be joyful: for that will accompany him in his labor all the days of his life which God has given him under the sun.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

When I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done on the earth (for also there is that neither day nor night sees sleep with his eyes),

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

then I saw all the work of God, that man can't find out the work that is done under the sun, because however much a man labors to seek it out, yet he won't find it. Yes even though a wise man thinks he can comprehend it, he won't be able to find it.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

For all this I laid to my heart, even to explore all this: that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God; whether it is love or hatred, man doesn't know it; all is before them.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Go your way--eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already accepted your works.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

For man also doesn't know his time. As the fish that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare, even so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falls suddenly on them.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

There was a little city, and few men within it; and a great king came against it, besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it.

אֹתָ֔הּ (אֹתָ֔) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

Now a poor wise man was found in it, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

A feast is made for laughter, And wine makes the life glad; And money is the answer for all things.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Don't curse the king, no, not in your thoughts; And don't curse the rich in your bedchamber: For a bird of the sky may carry your voice, And that which has wings may tell the matter.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

As you don't know what is the way of the wind, Nor how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child; Even so you don't know the work of God who does all.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

In the morning sow your seed, And in the evening don't withhold your hand; For you don't know which will prosper, whether this or that, Or whether they both will be equally good.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Truly the light is sweet, And a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to see the sun.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Yes, if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; But let him remember the days of darkness, for they shall be many. All that comes is vanity.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, Before the evil days come, and the years draw near, When you will say, "I have no pleasure in them;"

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Further, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge. Yes, he pondered, sought out, and set in order many proverbs.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

This is the end of the matter. All has been heard. Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.

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

For God will bring every work into judgment, with every hidden thing, whether it is good, or whether it is evil.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Don't stare at me because I am dark, Because the sun has scorched me. My mother's sons were angry with me. They made me keeper of the vineyards. I haven't kept my own vineyard.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

If you don't know, most beautiful among women, Follow the tracks of the sheep. Graze your young goats beside the shepherds' tents.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”
