H9020–י–y

My son, give me thy heart, and let thy eyes observe my ways.

בְנִ֣י (י) i “my”דְּרָכַ֥י (י) i “my”

My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honey-comb, which is sweet to thy taste:

בְּנִ֣י (י) i “my”

My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change:

בְּנִ֣י (י) i “my”

Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction.

לִבִּ֑י (י) i “my”

My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.

בְּ֭נִי (י) i “my”לִבִּ֑י (י) i “my”

Remove far from me vanity and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:

חֻקִּֽי׃ (י) i “my”

Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.

אֱלֹהָֽי׃ (י) i “my”

What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?

בְּ֭רִי (י) i “my”בִּטְנִ֑י (י) i “my”נְדָרָֽי׃ (י) i “my”

And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this grievous labor hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised with it.

לִבִּ֗י (י) i “my”

I communed with my own heart, saying, Lo, I have come to great estate, and have gained more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: and my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.

לִבִּי֙ (י֙) i “my”לְפָנַ֖י (י) i “me”וְלִבִּ֛י (י) i “my”

And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit.

לִבִּי֙ (י֙) i “my”

I said in my heart, Come now, I will prove thee with mirth, therefore enjoy pleasure: and behold, this also is vanity.

בְּלִבִּ֔י (י) i “my”

I sought in my heart, to give myself to wine, yet acquainting my heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life.

בְלִבִּ֔י (י) i “my”בְּשָׂרִ֑י (י) i “my”וְלִבִּ֞י (י) i “my”

I made me great works; I built me houses; I planted me vineyards:

מַעֲשָׂ֑י (י) i “my”

I procured me servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before me:

לְפָנַ֖י (י) i “me”

So I was great, and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem: also my wisdom remained with me.

לְפָנַ֖י (י) i “me”חָכְמָתִ֖י (י) i “my”

And whatever my eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labor: and this was my portion of all my labor.

עֵינַ֔י (י) i “my”לִבִּ֜י (י) i “my”לִבִּ֤י (י) i “my”עֲמָלִ֔י (י) i “my”חֶלְקִ֖י (י) i “my”עֲמָלִֽי׃ (י) i “my”

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.

מַעֲשַׂי֙ (י֙) i “my”יָדַ֔י (י) i “my”

Then said I in my heart, As it happeneth to the fool, so it happeneth even to me; and why was I then more wise? Then I said in my heart, that this also is vanity.

בְּלִבִּ֗י (י) i “my”בְלִבִּ֔י (י) i “my”

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.

עֲמָלִ֔י (י) i “my”

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.

עֲמָלִ֔י (י) i “my”

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

לִבִּ֑י (י) i “my”

I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.

בְּלִבִּ֔י (י) i “my”

I said in my heart concerning the state of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.

בְּלִבִּ֔י (י) i “my”

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.
