Ecclesiastes 1:10

10 Is there anything of which one might say, "See this, it is new "? Already it has existed for ages Which were before us.

Ecclesiastes 1:16

16 I said to myself, "Behold, I have magnified and increased wisdom more than all who were over Jerusalem before me; and my mind has observed a wealth of wisdom and knowledge."

Ecclesiastes 2:3

3 I explored with my mind how to stimulate my body with wine while my mind was guiding me wisely, and how to take hold of folly, until I could see what good there is for the sons of men to do under heaven the few years of their lives.

Ecclesiastes 2:12

12 So I turned to consider wisdom, madness and folly; for what will the man do who will come after the king except what has already been done?

Ecclesiastes 3:9

9 What profit is there to the worker from that in which he toils?

Ecclesiastes 3:10

10 I have seen the task which God has given the sons of men with which to occupy themselves.

Ecclesiastes 3:11

11 He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end.

Ecclesiastes 3:14

14 I know that everything God does will remain forever; there is nothing to add to it and there is nothing to take from it, for God has so worked that men should fear Him.

Ecclesiastes 3:15

15 That which is has been already and that which will be has already been, for God seeks what has passed by.

Ecclesiastes 4:1

1 Then I looked again at all the acts of oppression which were being done under the sun. And behold I saw the tears of the oppressed and that they had no one to comfort them; and on the side of their oppressors was power, but they had no one to comfort them.

Ecclesiastes 4:2

2 So I congratulated the dead who are already dead more than the living who are still living.

Ecclesiastes 4:3

3 But better off than both of them is the one who has never existed, who has never seen the evil activity that is done under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 4:9

9 Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor.

Ecclesiastes 4:13

13 A poor yet wise lad is better than an old and foolish king who no longer knows how to receive instruction.

Ecclesiastes 4:15

15 I have seen all the living under the sun throng to the side of the second lad who replaces him.

Ecclesiastes 4:16

16 There is no end to all the people, to all who were before them, and even the ones who will come later will not be happy with him, for this too is vanity and striving after wind.

Ecclesiastes 5:4

4 When you make a vow to God, do not be late in paying it; for He takes no delight in fools. Pay what you vow!

Ecclesiastes 5:18

18 Here is what I have seen to be good and fitting: to eat, to drink and enjoy oneself in all one's labor in which he toils under the sun during the few years of his life which God has given him; for this is his reward.

Ecclesiastes 5:19

19 Furthermore, as for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, He has also empowered him to eat from them and to receive his reward and rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God.

Ecclesiastes 6:1

1 There is an evil which I have seen under the sun and it is prevalent among men -

Ecclesiastes 6:2

2 a man to whom God has given riches and wealth and honor so that his soul lacks nothing of all that he desires; yet God has not empowered him to eat from them, for a foreigner enjoys them. This is vanity and a severe affliction.

Ecclesiastes 6:10

10 Whatever exists has already been named , and it is known what man is; for he cannot dispute with him who is stronger than he is.

Ecclesiastes 7:2

2 It is better to go to a house of mourning Than to go to a house of feasting, Because that is the end of every man, And the living takes it to heart.

Ecclesiastes 7:13

13 Consider the work of God, For who is able to straighten what He has bent?

Ecclesiastes 7:19

19 Wisdom strengthens a wise man more than ten rulers who are in a city.

Ecclesiastes 7:20

20 Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does good and who never sins.

Ecclesiastes 7:21

21 Also, do not take seriously all words which are spoken, so that you will not hear your servant cursing you.

Ecclesiastes 7:26

26 And I discovered more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, whose hands are chains. One who is pleasing to God will escape from her, but the sinner will be captured by her.

Ecclesiastes 7:28

28 which I am still seeking but have not found. I have found one man among a thousand, but I have not found a woman among all these.

Ecclesiastes 8:3

3 "Do not be in a hurry to leave him. Do not join in an evil matter, for he will do whatever he pleases."

Ecclesiastes 8:4

4 Since the word of the king is authoritative, who will say to him, "What are you doing?"

Ecclesiastes 8:9

9 All this I have seen and applied my mind to every deed that has been done under the sun wherein a man has exercised authority over another man to his hurt.

Ecclesiastes 8:10

10 So then, I have seen the wicked buried, those who used to go in and out from the holy place, and they are soon forgotten in the city where they did thus. This too is futility.

Ecclesiastes 8:11

11 Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of men among them are given fully to do evil.

Ecclesiastes 8:12

12 Although a sinner does evil a hundred times and may lengthen his life, still I know that it will be well for those who fear God, who fear Him openly .

Ecclesiastes 8:13

13 But it will not be well for the evil man and he will not lengthen his days like a shadow, because he does not fear God.

Ecclesiastes 8:14

14 There is futility which is done on the earth, that is, there are righteous men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked. On the other hand, there are evil men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I say that this too is futility.

Ecclesiastes 8:15

15 So I commended pleasure, for there is nothing good for a man under the sun except to eat and to drink and to be merry, and this will stand by him in his toils throughout the days of his life which God has given him under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 8:16

16 When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the task which has been done on the earth (even though one should never sleep day or night ),

Ecclesiastes 8:17

17 and I saw every work of God, I concluded that man cannot discover the work which has been done under the sun. Even though man should seek laboriously, he will not discover; and though the wise man should say, "I know," he cannot discover.

Ecclesiastes 9:2

2 It is the same for all. There is one fate for the righteous and for the wicked; for the good, for the clean and for the unclean; for the man who offers a sacrifice and for the one who does not sacrifice. As the good man is, so is the sinner; as the swearer is, so is the one who is afraid to swear.

Ecclesiastes 9:4

4 For whoever is joined with all the living, there is hope; surely a live dog is better than a dead lion.

Ecclesiastes 9:9

9 Enjoy life with the woman whom you love all the days of your fleeting life which He has given to you under the sun ; for this is your reward in life and in your toil in which you have labored under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 9:10

10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for there is no activity or planning or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol where you are going.

Ecclesiastes 10:14

14 Yet the fool multiplies words. No man knows what will happen, and who can tell him what will come after him?

Ecclesiastes 11:5

5 Just as you do not know the path of the wind and how bones are formed in the womb of the pregnant woman, so you do not know the activity of God who makes all things.

Ecclesiastes 12:1

1 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 delight in them";

Ecclesiastes 12:2

2 before the sun and the light, the moon and the stars are darkened, and clouds return after the rain;

Ecclesiastes 12:6

6 Remember Him before the silver cord is broken and the golden bowl is crushed, the pitcher by the well is shattered and the wheel at the cistern is crushed;

Ecclesiastes 12:7

7 then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it.
