H3117G–יוֹם–yom

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.

יְמֵ֥י ye.Mei “[the] days of”

Of the wise man, as of the foolish man, there is no memory for ever, seeing that those who now are will have gone from memory in the days to come. See how death comes to the wise as to the foolish!

הַיָּמִ֤ים (יָּמִ֤ים) ya.Mim “days”

All his days are sorrow, and his work is full of grief. Even in the night his heart has no rest. This again is to no purpose.

יָמָ֣יו (יָמָ֣י) ya.Ma “days”

All his days are in the dark, and he has much sorrow, pain, disease, and trouble.

יָמָ֖יו (יָמָ֖י) ya.Ma “days”

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.

יְמֵי־ ye.mei- “[the] days of”

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.

יְמֵ֣י ye.Mei “[the] days of”

If a man has a hundred children, and his life is long so that the days of his years are great in number, but his soul takes no pleasure in good, and he is not honoured at his death; I say that a birth before its time is better than he.

יְמֵֽי־ ye.mei- “[the] days of”

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?

יְמֵי־ ye.mei- “[the] days of”

A good name is better than oil of great price, and the day of death than the day of birth.

וְי֣וֹם (י֣וֹם) Yom “[the] day of”מִיּ֖וֹם (יּ֖וֹם) Yom “[the] day of”

Say not, Why were the days which have gone by better than these? Such a question comes not from wisdom.

שֶׁ֤הַיָּמִים֙ (יָּמִים֙) ya.mim “days”

In the day of wealth have joy, but in the day of evil take thought: God has put the one against the other, so that man may not be certain what will be after him.

בְּי֤וֹם (י֤וֹם) Yom “a day of”וּבְי֥וֹם (י֥וֹם) Yom “a day of”

These two have I seen in my life which is to no purpose: a good man coming to his end in his righteousness, and an evil man whose days are long in his evil-doing.

בִּימֵ֣י (ימֵ֣י) Mei “[the] days of”

No man has authority over the wind, to keep the wind; or is ruler over the day of his death. In war no man's time is free, and evil will not keep the sinner safe.

בְּי֣וֹם (י֣וֹם) Yom “[the] day of”

But it will not be well for the evil-doer; he will not make his days long like a shade, because he has no fear before God.

יָמִ֖ים ya.Mim “days”

So I gave praise to joy, because there is nothing better for a man to do under the sun than to take meat and drink and be happy; for that will be with him in his work all the days of his life which God gives him under the sun.

יְמֵ֥י ye.Mei “[the] days of”

When I gave my mind to the knowledge of wisdom and to seeing the business which is done on the earth (and there are those whose eyes see not sleep by day or by night),

בַּיּוֹם֙ (יּוֹם֙) i.yOm “day”

Have joy with the woman of your love all the days of your foolish life which he gives you under the sun. Because that is your part in life and in your work which you do under the sun.

יְמֵ֣י ye.Mei “[the] days of”

Have joy, O young man, while you are young; and let your heart be glad in the days of your strength, and go in the ways of your heart, and in the desire of your eyes; but be certain that for all these things God will be your judge.

בִּימֵ֣י (ימֵ֣י) Mei “[the] days of”

Let your mind be turned to your Maker in the days of your strength, while the evil days come not, and the years are far away when you will say, I have no pleasure in them;

בִּימֵ֖י (ימֵ֖י) Mei “[the] days of”יְמֵ֣י ye.Mei “[the] days of”

In the day when the keepers of the house are shaking for fear, and the strong men are bent down, and the women who were crushing the grain are at rest because their number is small, and those looking out of the windows are unable to see;
