Read word by wordWhat shall I say, O my son? What, O son of my womb? What, O son of my vows?
Read word by wordAnd I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven. What a miserable task God has laid upon the sons of men to occupy them!
Read word by wordI said to myself, “Behold, I have grown and increased in wisdom beyond all those before me who were over Jerusalem, and my mind has observed a wealth of wisdom and knowledge.”
Read word by wordSo I set my mind to know wisdom and madness and folly; I learned that this, too, is a pursuit of the wind.
Read word by wordI said to myself, “Come now, I will test you with pleasure; enjoy what is good!” But it proved to be futile.

Read word by wordYet when I considered all the works that my hands had accomplished and what I had toiled to achieve, I found everything to be futile, a pursuit of the wind; there was nothing to be gained under the sun.
Read word by wordSo I said to myself, “The fate of the fool will also befall me. What then have I gained by being wise?” And I said to myself that this too is futile.
Read word by wordI hated all for which I had toiled under the sun, because I must leave it to the man who comes after me.

Read word by wordI said in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked, since there is a time for every activity and every deed.”
Read word by wordI said to myself, “As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts.”
Read word by wordThere is a man all alone, without even a son or brother. And though there is no end to his labor, his eyes are still not content with his wealth: “For whom do I toil and bereave my soul of enjoyment?” This too is futile—a miserable task.
Read word by wordIn my futile life I have seen both of these: A righteous man perishing in his righteousness, and a wicked man living long in his wickedness.
