King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
And I turnedH6437 myself to beholdH7200 wisdomH2451, and madnessH1947, and follyH5531: for what can the manH120 do that comethH935 afterH310 the kingH4428? even that which hath been alreadyH3528 doneH6213. {even…: or, in those things which have been already done}
Then I sawH7200 thatH3426 wisdomH2451 excellethH3504 follyH5531, as far as lightH216 excellethH3504 darknessH2822. {that…: Heb. that there is an excellency in wisdom more than in folly, etc}
The wise man'sH2450 eyesH5869 are in his headH7218; but the foolH3684 walkethH1980 in darknessH2822: and I myself perceivedH3045 also that oneH259 eventH4745 happenethH7136 to them all.
ThenH227 saidH559 I in my heartH3820, As it happenethH4745 to the foolH3684, so it happenethH7136 even to meH1571; and why was I then moreH3148 wiseH2449? Then I saidH1696 in my heartH3820, that this also is vanityH1892. {happeneth even…: Heb. happeneth to me, even to me}
For there is no remembranceH2146 of the wiseH2450 more thanH5973 of the foolH3684 for everH5769; seeing that which nowH3528 is in the daysH3117 to comeH935 shall all be forgottenH7911. And how diethH4191 the wiseH2450 man? as the foolH3684.
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.
I communedH1696 with mine own heartH3820, sayingH559, Lo, I am come to great estateH1431, and have gottenH3254 more wisdomH2451 than all they that have been beforeH6440 me in JerusalemH3389: yea, my heartH3820 had greatH7235 experienceH7200 of wisdomH2451 and knowledgeH1847. {had…: Heb. had seen much}
And I gaveH5414 my heartH3820 to knowH3045 wisdomH2451, and to knowH3045 madnessH1947 and follyH5531: I perceivedH3045 that thisH1571 also is vexationH7475 of spiritH7307.
For in muchH7230 wisdomH2451 is muchH7230 griefH3708: and he that increasethH3254 knowledgeH1847 increasethH3254 sorrowH4341.
If the ironH1270 be bluntH6949, and he do not whetH7043 the edgeH6440, then must he putH1396 to more strengthH2428: but wisdomH2451 is profitableH3504 to directH3787.
For wisdomH2451 is a defenceH6738, and moneyH3701 is a defenceH6738: but the excellencyH3504 of knowledgeH1847 is, that wisdomH2451 giveth lifeH2421 to them that haveH1167 it. {defence: Heb. shadow}
WisdomH2451 strengthenethH5810 the wiseH2450 more than tenH6235 mightyH7989 men which are in the cityH5892.
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}
Then saidH559 I, WisdomH2451 is betterH2896 than strengthH1369: nevertheless the poor man'sH4542 wisdomH2451 is despisedH959, and his wordsH1697 are not heardH8085.
ForG1063 ye wereG2258 sometimesG4218 darknessG4655, butG1161 nowG3568 are ye lightG5457 inG1722 the LordG2962: walkG4043 asG5613 childrenG5043 of lightG5457:
AndG1161 thisG3778 isG2076 the condemnationG2920, thatG3754 lightG5457 is comeG2064 intoG1519 the worldG2889, andG2532 menG444 lovedG25 darknessG4655 ratherG3123 thanG2228 lightG5457, becauseG1063 theirG846 deedsG2041 wereG2258 evilG4190.
For he seethH7200 that wise menH2450 dieH4191, likewiseH3162 the foolH3684 and the brutish personH1198 perishH6, and leaveH5800 their wealthH2428 to othersH312.
The memoryH2143 of the justH6662 is blessedH1293: but the nameH8034 of the wickedH7563 shall rotH7537.
Surely he shall not be movedH4131 for everH5769: the righteousH6662 shall be in everlastingH5769 remembranceH2143.
AndG2532 when he had given thanksG2168, he brakeG2806 it, andG2532 saidG2036, TakeG2983, eatG5315: thisG5124 isG2076 myG3450 bodyG4983, whichG3588 is brokenG2806 forG5228 youG5216: thisG5124 doG4160 inG1519 remembranceG364 of meG1699. {in…: or, for a remembrance}
After the same mannerG5615 alsoG2532 he took the cupG4221, whenG3326 he had suppedG1172, sayingG3004, ThisG5124 cupG4221 isG2076 the newG2537 testamentG1242 inG1722 myG1699 bloodG129: thisG5124 do yeG4160, as oft asG3740+G302 ye drinkG4095 it, inG1519 remembranceG364 of meG1699.
And AbrahamH85 drew nearH5066, and saidH559, Wilt thou also destroyH5595 the righteousH6662 withH5973 the wickedH7563?
He that lovethG5368 hisG846 lifeG5590 shall loseG622 itG846; andG2532 he that hatethG3404 hisG846 lifeG5590 inG1722 thisG5129 worldG2889 shall keepG5442 itG846 untoG1519 lifeG2222 eternalG166.
IfG1487 inG1722 thisG5026 lifeG2222 onlyG3440 we have hopeG1679+G2070 inG1722 ChristG5547, we areG2070 of allG3956 menG444 most miserableG1652.
AndG2532 theyG846 overcameG3528 himG846 byG1223 the bloodG129 of the LambG721, andG2532 byG1223 the wordG3056 of theirG846 testimonyG3141; andG2532 they lovedG25 notG3756 theirG846 livesG5590 untoG891 the deathG2288.
FightG75 the goodG2570 fightG73 of faithG4102, lay hold onG1949 eternalG166 lifeG2222, whereuntoG1519+G3739 thou artG2564 alsoG2532 calledG2564, andG2532 hast professedG3670 a goodG2570 professionG3671 beforeG1799 manyG4183 witnessesG3144.
The thiefG2812 comethG2064 notG3756, butG1508 for toG2443 stealG2813, andG2532 to killG2380, andG2532 to destroyG622: IG1473 am comeG2064 thatG2443 they might haveG2192 lifeG2222, andG2532 that they might haveG2192 it more abundantlyG4053.
