Then I said in my heart, that this also is vanity. 16 For there is no remembrancev of the wise more than of the fool for ever; seeing that which now is, in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how dieth x the wise man? as the fool. 17 Therefore I hated life; because the work that is wrought under the sun is grievous unto me: for all is vanity and vexation of spirit. 18 Yea, I hated all my labour which I had 3 taken under the sun; because I should leave it unto the man that shall be after me. 19 And who knoweth whether he shall be a wise man or a fool? yetb shall he have rule over all my labour wherein I have laboured,and wherein I have shewed myself wise under the sun. This is also vanity. 20 Therefore I went about to cause my heart to despair of all the labour which I took under the sun. 21 For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that hath not laboured therein shall he leave it for his portion. This also is vanity, and a great evil. 22 For what h hath man of all his labour, S 2 425 Vanity of Human Wishes. so that a man hath no pre-eminence above a beast for all is vanity.

This is also vanity. 24 There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and that he 3 should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it f1 was from the hand of God. 25 For who can eat, or who else can 2 his ascendhasten hereunto more than I? 26 For God giveth to a man that is good in 4 his sight, wisdom,and knowledge, and Joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather, and to heap up, that g he may give to him that is good before God. This also is vanity and vexation of Spirit. CHAP. III. To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: 2.

This is also vanity, yea, it is a sore travail. 9 Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labou :. 10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that i. alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. 11 Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? 12 And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken. 13 Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who 2 will no more be admonished. 14 For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also he that is born in his king. dom becometh poor. 15 I considered all the living which walk under the sun, with the second child that shall stand up in his stead. 16 There is no end of all the people, even of all that have been before them: they also that come after shall not rejoice in him.

A s GOOD name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one's birth. 2 It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart. 3 Sorrow 5 is better than laughter: for u by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better. 4 The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning: but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth. 5 It is better to hear the rebuke w of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools. 6 For as the 6 crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool. This also is vanity. 7 Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift z destroyeth the heart. 8 Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof; and the patient a in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. 9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools. 10 Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not inquire 9 wisely con cerning this. 11 Visdom is good with an inherithe give notance, and by it there is profit to them much, yet that see the sun. he remembereth. 3 shadow.
