Who is as the wiseH2450 man? and who knowethH3045 the interpretationH6592 of a thingH1697? a man'sH120 wisdomH2451 maketh his faceH6440 to shineH215, and the boldnessH5797 of his faceH6440 shall be changedH8132. {the boldness: Heb. the strength}
I counsel thee to keepH8104 the king'sH4428 commandmentH6310, and that in regardH1700 of the oathH7621 of GodH430.
Be not hastyH926 to go outH3212 of his sightH6440: standH5975 not in an evilH7451 thingH1697; for he doethH6213 whatsoever pleasethH2654 him.
Where the wordH1697 of a kingH4428 is, there is powerH7983: and who may sayH559 unto him, What doestH6213 thou?
Whoso keepethH8104 the commandmentH4687 shall feelH3045 no evilH7451 thingH1697: and a wise man'sH2450 heartH3820 discernethH3045 both timeH6256 and judgmentH4941. {shall…: Heb. shall know}
Because to every purposeH2656 there isH3426 timeH6256 and judgmentH4941, therefore the miseryH7451 of manH120 is greatH7227 upon him.
For he knowethH3045 not that which shall be: for who can tellH5046 him when it shall be? {when…: or, how it shall be?}
There is no manH120 that hath powerH7989 over the spiritH7307 to retainH3607 the spiritH7307; neither hath he powerH7983 in the dayH3117 of deathH4194: and there is no dischargeH4917 in that warH4421; neither shall wickednessH7562 deliverH4422 those that are givenH1167 to it. {discharge: or, casting off weapons}
All this have I seenH7200, and appliedH5414 my heartH3820 unto every workH4639 that is doneH6213 under the sunH8121: there is a timeH6256 wherein one manH120 rulethH7980 over another to his own hurtH7451.
And soH3651 I sawH7200 the wickedH7563 buriedH6912, who had comeH935 and goneH1980 from the placeH4725 of the holyH6918, and they were forgottenH7911 in the cityH5892 where they had so doneH6213: this is also vanityH1892.
Because sentenceH6599 against an evilH7451 workH4639 is not executedH6213 speedilyH4120, therefore the heartH3820 of the sonsH1121 of menH120 is fully setH4390 in them to doH6213 evilH7451.
Though a sinnerH2398 doH6213 evilH7451 an hundred timesH3967, and his days be prolongedH748, yet surely I knowH3045 that it shall be wellH2896 with them that fearH3373 GodH430, which fearH3372 beforeH6440 him:
But it shall not be wellH2896 with the wickedH7563, neither shall he prolongH748 his daysH3117, which are as a shadowH6738; because he fearethH3373 not beforeH6440 GodH430.
There isH3426 a vanityH1892 which is doneH6213 upon the earthH776; that there be justH6662 men, unto whom it happenethH5060 according to the workH4639 of the wickedH7563; again, there beH3426 wickedH7563 men, to whom it happenethH5060 according to the workH4639 of the righteousH6662: I saidH559 that this alsoH1571 is vanityH1892.
Then I commendedH7623 mirthH8057, because a manH120 hath no better thingH2896 under the sunH8121, than to eatH398, and to drinkH8354, and to be merryH8055: for that shall abideH3867 with him of his labourH5999 the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416, which GodH430 givethH5414 him under the sunH8121.
When I appliedH5414 mine heartH3820 to knowH3045 wisdomH2451, and to seeH7200 the businessH6045 that is doneH6213 upon the earthH776: (for also there is that neither dayH3117 nor nightH3915 seethH7200 sleepH8142 with his eyesH5869:)
Then I beheldH7200 all the workH4639 of GodH430, that a manH120 cannotH3201 find outH4672 the workH4639 that is doneH6213 under the sunH8121: becauseH834 thoughH7945 a manH120 labourH5998 to seek it outH1245, yet he shall not findH4672 it; yea further; though a wiseH2450 man thinkH559 to knowH3045 it, yet shall he not be ableH3201 to findH4672 it.

RejoiceH8055, O young manH970, in thy youthH3208; and let thy heartH3820 cheerH2895 thee in the daysH3117 of thy youthH979, and walkH1980 in the waysH1870 of thine heartH3820, and in the sightH4758 of thine eyesH5869: but knowH3045 thou, that for all these things GodH430 will bringH935 thee into judgmentH4941.
He hath madeH6213 every thing beautifulH3303 in his timeH6256: also he hath setH5414 the worldH5769 in their heartH3820, so thatH1097 no manH120 can find outH4672 the workH4639 that GodH430 makethH6213 from the beginningH7218 to the endH5490.
Therefore removeH5493 sorrowH3708 from thy heartH3820, and put awayH5674 evilH7451 from thy fleshH1320: for childhoodH3208 and youthH7839 are vanityH1892. {sorrow: or, anger}
I saidH559 in mine heartH3820, GodH430 shall judgeH8199 the righteousH6662 and the wickedH7563: for there is a timeH6256 there for every purposeH2656 and for every workH4639.
RememberH2142 now thy CreatorH1254 in the daysH3117 of thy youthH979, while the evilH7451 daysH3117 comeH935 not, nor the yearsH8141 draw nighH5060, when thou shalt sayH559, I have no pleasureH2656 in them;
ConsiderH7200 the workH4639 of GodH430: for who canH3201 make that straightH8626, which he hath made crookedH5791?
WoeH188 unto the wickedH7563! it shall be illH7451 with him: for the rewardH1576 of his handsH3027 shall be givenH6213 him. {given…: Heb. done to him}
As for my peopleH5971, childrenH5953 are their oppressorsH5065, and womenH802 ruleH4910 over them. O my peopleH5971, they which leadH833 thee cause thee to errH8582, and destroyH1104 the wayH1870 of thy pathsH734. {lead…: or, call thee blessed} {destroy: Heb. swallow up}
The LORDH3068 standeth upH5324 to pleadH7378, and standethH5975 to judgeH1777 the peopleH5971.
The LORDH3068 will enterH935 into judgmentH4941 with the ancientsH2205 of his peopleH5971, and the princesH8269 thereof: for ye have eaten upH1197 the vineyardH3754; the spoilH1500 of the poorH6041 is in your housesH1004. {eaten: or, burnt}
In the dayH3117 of prosperityH2896 be joyfulH2896, but in the dayH3117 of adversityH7451 considerH7200: GodH430 also hath setH6213 the one over againstH5980 the other, to the endH1700 that manH120 should findH4672 nothingH3972 afterH310 him. {set: Heb. made}
And in that dayH3117 did the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 callH7121 to weepingH1065, and to mourningH4553, and to baldnessH7144, and to girdingH2296 with sackclothH8242:
And behold joyH8342 and gladnessH8057, slayingH2026 oxenH1241, and killingH7819 sheepH6629, eatingH398 fleshH1320, and drinkingH8354 wineH3196: let us eatH398 and drinkH8354; for to morrowH4279 we shall dieH4191.
And it was revealedH1540 in mine earsH241 by the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Surely this iniquityH5771 shall not be purgedH3722 from you till ye dieH4191, saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635.
When onceG575+G3739+G302 the master of the houseG3617 is risen upG1453, andG2532 hath shutG608 to the doorG2374, andG2532 ye beginG756 to standG2476 withoutG1854, andG2532 to knockG2925 at the doorG2374, sayingG3004, LordG2962, LordG2962, openG455 unto usG2254; andG2532 he shall answerG611 and sayG2046 unto youG5213, I knowG1492 youG5209 notG3756 whenceG4159 ye areG2075:
AndG2532 asG2531 it wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of NoeG3575, soG3779 shall it beG2071 alsoG2532 inG1722 the daysG2250 of the SonG5207 of manG444.
They did eatG2068, they drankG4095, they married wivesG1060, they were given in marriageG1547, untilG891 the dayG2250 thatG3739 NoeG3575 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the arkG2787, andG2532 the floodG2627 cameG2064, andG2532 destroyedG622 them allG537.
LikewiseG3668 alsoG2532 asG5613 it wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of LotG3091; they did eatG2068, they drankG4095, they boughtG59, they soldG4453, they plantedG5452, they buildedG3618;
ButG3739+G1161 the same dayG2250 that LotG3091 wentG1831 out ofG575 SodomG4670 it rainedG1026 fireG4442 andG2532 brimstoneG2303 fromG575 heavenG3772, andG2532 destroyedG622 them allG537.
EvenG2596 thusG5024 shall it beG2071 in the dayG3739+G2250 when the SonG5207 of manG444 is revealedG601.
SayingG3004, IfG3754+G1487 thou hadst knownG1097, evenG2532 thouG4771, at leastG2534 inG1722 thisG5026 thyG4675 dayG2250, the thingsG3588 which belong untoG4314 thyG4675 peaceG1515! butG1161 nowG3568 they are hidG2928 fromG575 thineG4675 eyesG3788.
ForG3754 the daysG2250 shall comeG2240 uponG1909 theeG4571, thatG2532 thineG4675 enemiesG2190 shall castG4016 a trenchG5482 aboutG4016 theeG4671, andG2532 compassG4033 theeG4571 roundG4033, andG2532 keepG4912 theeG4571 inG4912 on every sideG3840,
AndG2532 shall layG1474 theeG4571 even with the groundG1474, andG2532 thyG4675 childrenG5043 withinG1722 theeG4671; andG2532 they shallG863 notG3756 leaveG863 inG1722 theeG4671 one stoneG3037 uponG1909 anotherG3037; becauseG473+G3739 thou knewestG1097 notG3756 the timeG2540 of thyG4675 visitationG1984.
WhereforeG1352 (asG2531 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 saithG3004, To dayG4594 ifG1437 ye will hearG191 hisG846 voiceG5456,
HardenG4645 notG3361 yourG5216 heartsG2588, asG5613 inG1722 the provocationG3894, inG2596 the dayG2250 of temptationG3986 inG1722 the wildernessG2048:
WhenG3757 yourG5216 fathersG3962 temptedG3985 meG3165, provedG1381 meG3165, andG2532 sawG1492 myG3450 worksG2041 fortyG5062 yearsG2094.
WhereforeG1352 I was grievedG4360 with thatG1565 generationG1074, andG2532 saidG2036, They doG4105 alwayG104 errG4105 in their heartG2588; andG1161 theyG846 haveG1097 notG3756 knownG1097 myG3450 waysG3598.
SoG5613 I swareG3660 inG1722 myG3450 wrathG3709, They shallG1525 notG1487 enterG1525 intoG1519 myG3450 restG2663.) {They…: Gr. If they shall enter}
