To the chief MusicianH5329, even to JeduthunH3038, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. I saidH559, I will take heedH8104 to my waysH1870, that I sinH2398 not with my tongueH3956: I will keepH8104 my mouthH6310 with a bridleH4269, while the wickedH7563 is before me. {my mouth…: Heb. a bridle, or, muzzle for my mouth}
I was dumbH481 with silenceH1747, I held my peaceH2814, even from goodH2896; and my sorrowH3511 was stirredH5916. {stirred: Heb. troubled}
My heartH3820 was hotH2552 withinH7130 me, while I was musingH1901 the fireH784 burnedH1197: thenH227 spakeH1696 I with my tongueH3956,
LORDH3068, make me to knowH3045 mine endH7093, and the measureH4060 of my daysH3117, what it is; that I may knowH3045 how frailH2310 I am. {how…: or, what time I have here}
Behold, thou hast madeH5414 my daysH3117 as an handbreadthH2947; and mine ageH2465 is as nothing before thee: verily everyH3605 manH120 at his best stateH5324 is altogetherH3605 vanityH1892. SelahH5542. {at…: Heb. settled}
Surely every manH376 walkethH1980 in a vain shewH6754: surely they are disquietedH1993 in vainH1892: he heapeth upH6651 riches, and knowethH3045 not who shall gatherH622 them. {a vain…: Heb. an image}
And now, LordH136, what waitH6960 I for? my hopeH8431 is in thee.
DeliverH5337 me from all my transgressionsH6588: makeH7760 me not the reproachH2781 of the foolishH5036.
I was dumbH481, I openedH6605 not my mouthH6310; because thou didstH6213 it.
RemoveH5493 thy strokeH5061 awayH5493 from me: I am consumedH3615 by the blowH8409 of thine handH3027. {blow: Heb. conflict}
When thou with rebukesH8433 dost correctH3256 manH376 for iniquityH5771, thou makest his beautyH2530 to consume awayH4529 like a mothH6211: surely every manH120 is vanityH1892. SelahH5542. {his…: Heb. that which is to be desired in him to melt away}
HearH8085 my prayerH8605, O LORDH3068, and give earH238 unto my cryH7775; hold not thy peaceH2790 at my tearsH1832: for I am a strangerH1616 with thee, and a sojournerH8453, as all my fathersH1 were.
O spareH8159 me, that I may recover strengthH1082, before I go henceH3212, and be no more.

AndG2532 they that useG5530 thisG5127 worldG2889, asG5613 notG3361 abusingG2710 it: forG1063 the fashionG4976 of thisG5129 worldG2889 passeth awayG3855.
I have seenH7200 all the worksH4639 that are doneH6213 under the sunH8121; and, behold, all is vanityH1892 and vexationH7469 of spiritH7307.
For he seethH7200 that wise menH2450 dieH4191, likewiseH3162 the foolH3684 and the brutish personH1198 perishH6, and leaveH5800 their wealthH2428 to othersH312.
WhereasG3748 ye knowG1987 notG3756 whatG3588 shall be on the morrowG839. ForG1063 whatG4169 is yourG5216 lifeG2222? It isG2076 evenG1063 a vapourG822, thatG4314 appeareth forG5316 a little timeG3641, andG1161 thenG1899 vanisheth awayG853. {It…: or, For it is}
Therefore I hatedH8130 lifeH2416; because the workH4639 that is wroughtH6213 under the sunH8121 is grievousH7451 unto me: for all is vanityH1892 and vexationH7469 of spiritH7307.
Their inwardH7130 thought is, that their housesH1004 shall continue for everH5769, and their dwellingH4908 places to allH1755 generationsH1755; they callH7121 their landsH127 after their own namesH8034. {all…: Heb. generation and generation}
Yea, I hatedH8130 all my labourH5999 which I had takenH6001 under the sunH8121: because I should leaveH3240 it unto the manH120 that shall be afterH310 me. {taken: Heb. laboured}
Though he heap upH6651 silverH3701 as the dustH6083, and prepareH3559 raimentH4403 as the clayH2563;
Therefore I went aboutH5437 to causeH2976 my heartH3820 to despairH2976 of all the labourH5999 which I tookH5998 under the sunH8121.
He may prepareH3559 it, but the justH6662 shall put it onH3847, and the innocentH5355 shall divideH2505 the silverH3701.
For there isH3426 a manH120 whose labourH5999 is in wisdomH2451, and in knowledgeH1847, and in equityH3788; yet to a manH120 that hath not labouredH5998 therein shall he leaveH5414 it for his portionH2506. This also is vanityH1892 and a greatH7227 evilH7451. {leave: Heb. give}
A goodH2896 man leaveth an inheritanceH5157 to his children'sH1121 childrenH1121: and the wealthH2428 of the sinnerH2398 is laid upH6845 for the justH6662.
Wilt thou setH5774+H5774 thine eyesH5869 upon that which is not? for riches certainlyH6213 makeH6213 themselves wingsH3671; they fly awayH5774+H5774 as an eagleH5404 toward heavenH8064. {set…: Heb. cause thine eyes to fly upon}
There isH3426 oneH259 alone, and there is not a secondH8145; yea, he hath neither childH1121 nor brotherH251: yet is there no endH7093 of all his labourH5999; neither is his eyeH5869 satisfiedH7646 with richesH6239; neither saith he, For whom do I labourH6001, and bereaveH2637 my soulH5315 of goodH2896? This is also vanityH1892, yea, it is a soreH7451 travailH6045.
For richesH2633 are not for everH5769: and doth the crownH5145 endure to everyH1755 generationH1755? {riches: Heb. strength} {to…: Heb. to generation and generation?}
Seeing there beH3426 manyH7235 thingsH1697 that increaseH7235 vanityH1892, what is manH120 the betterH3148?
I gatheredH3664 me also silverH3701 and goldH2091, and the peculiar treasureH5459 of kingsH4428 and of the provincesH4082: I gatH6213 me men singersH7891 and women singersH7891, and the delightsH8588 of the sonsH1121 of menH120, as musical instrumentsH7705+H7705, and that of all sorts. {musical…: Heb. musical instrument and instruments}
For who knowethH3045 what is goodH2896 for manH120 in this lifeH2416, allH4557 the daysH3117 of his vainH1892 lifeH2416 which he spendethH6213 as a shadowH6738? for who can tellH5046 a manH120 what shall be afterH310 him under the sunH8121? {all…: Heb. the number of the days of the life of his vanity}

Therefore I went aboutH5437 to causeH2976 my heartH3820 to despairH2976 of all the labourH5999 which I tookH5998 under the sunH8121.
For there isH3426 a manH120 whose labourH5999 is in wisdomH2451, and in knowledgeH1847, and in equityH3788; yet to a manH120 that hath not labouredH5998 therein shall he leaveH5414 it for his portionH2506. This also is vanityH1892 and a greatH7227 evilH7451. {leave: Heb. give}
For God givethH5414 to a manH120 that is goodH2896 in his sightH6440 wisdomH2451, and knowledgeH1847, and joyH8057: but to the sinnerH2398 he givethH5414 travailH6045, to gatherH622 and to heap upH3664, that he may giveH5414 to him that is goodH2896 beforeH6440 GodH430. This also is vanityH1892 and vexationH7469 of spiritH7307. {in his…: Heb. before him}
Let us hearH8085 the conclusionH5490 of the whole matterH1697: FearH3372 GodH430, and keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687: for this is the whole duty of manH120. {Let…: or, The end of the matter, even all that hath been heard, is}
But those richesH6239 perishH6 by evilH7451 travailH6045: and he begettethH3205 a sonH1121, and there is nothingH3972 in his handH3027.
Wherefore do ye spendH8254 moneyH3701 for that which is not breadH3899? and your labourH3018 for that which satisfiethH7654 notH3808? hearkenH8085 diligentlyH8085 unto me, and eatH398 ye that which is goodH2896, and let your soulH5315 delightH6026 itself in fatnessH1880. {spend: Heb. weigh}
ButG1161 GodG2316 saidG2036 unto himG846, Thou foolG878, thisG5026 nightG3571 thyG4675 soulG5590 shall be requiredG523 ofG575 theeG4675: thenG1161 whoseG5101 shall those things beG2071, whichG3739 thou hast providedG2090? {thy…: Gr. do they require thy soul}
ButG1161 MarthaG3136 was cumberedG4049 aboutG4012 muchG4183 servingG1248, andG1161 came to himG2186, and saidG2036, LordG2962, dostG3199 thouG4671 notG3756 careG3199 thatG3754 myG3450 sisterG79 hath leftG2641 meG3165 to serveG1247 aloneG3441? bidG2036 herG846 thereforeG3767 thatG2443 she helpG4878 meG3427.
AndG1161 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto herG846, MarthaG3136, MarthaG3136, thou art carefulG3309 andG2532 troubledG5182 aboutG4012 many thingsG4183:
ButG1161 one thingG1520 isG2076 needfulG5532: andG1161 MaryG3137 hath chosenG1586 that goodG18 partG3310, whichG3748 shallG851 notG3756 be taken awayG851 fromG575 herG846.
SoG3779 is he that layeth up treasureG2343 for himselfG1438, andG2532 isG4147 notG3361 richG4147 towardG1519 GodG2316.
ButG1161 GodG2316 saidG2036 unto himG846, Thou foolG878, thisG5026 nightG3571 thyG4675 soulG5590 shall be requiredG523 ofG575 theeG4675: thenG1161 whoseG5101 shall those things beG2071, whichG3739 thou hast providedG2090? {thy…: Gr. do they require thy soul}
YourG5216 goldG5557 andG2532 silverG696 is cankeredG2728; andG2532 the rustG2447 of themG846 shall beG2071 a witnessG3142 againstG1519 youG5213, andG2532 shall eatG5315 yourG5216 fleshG4561 as it wereG5613 fireG4442. Ye have heaped treasure togetherG2343 forG1722 the lastG2078 daysG2250.
SoG3779 is he that layeth up treasureG2343 for himselfG1438, andG2532 isG4147 notG3361 richG4147 towardG1519 GodG2316.
