H5998–עָמַל–a.mal

A Song of degrees for Solomon. Except the LORD shall build the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the LORD shall keep the city, the watchman waketh in vain.

עָמְל֣וּ 'a.me.Lu “they have toiled”

He that laboreth laboreth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him.

עָ֣מְלָה 'A.me.lah “it labors”

What profit hath a man of all his labor, which he taketh under the sun?

שֶֽׁיַּעֲמֹ֖ל (יַּעֲמֹ֖ל) i.ya.'a.Mol “he toils”

Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labor that I had labored to do: and behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.

שֶׁעָמַ֣לְתִּי (עָמַ֣לְתִּי) 'a.Mal.ti “I had toiled”

And who knoweth whether he shall be a wise man or a fool? yet shall he have rule over all my labor in which I have labored, and in which I have showed myself wise under the sun. This is also vanity.

שֶֽׁעָמַ֥לְתִּי (עָמַ֥לְתִּי) 'a.Mal.ti “I have toiled”

Therefore I went about to cause my heart to despair of all the labor which I took under the sun.

שֶׁעָמַ֖לְתִּי (עָמַ֖לְתִּי) 'a.Mal.ti “I have toiled”

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.

עָֽמַל־ 'a.mal- “he toiled”

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?

שֶֽׁיַּעֲמֹ֖ל (יַּעֲמֹ֖ל) ya.'a.Mol “he will toil”

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.

שֶׁיַּעֲמֹ֣ל (יַּעֲמֹ֣ל) ya.'a.Mol “someone will toil”

Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man may labor to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yes further; though a wise man thinketh to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it.

יַעֲמֹ֧ל ya.'a.Mol “he toils”

Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for which thou hast not labored, neither made it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:

עָמַ֥לְתָּ 'a.Mal.ta “you had toiled”
