1
A good name [8034] [is] better [2896] than precious [2896] ointment; [8081] and the day [3117] of death [4194] than the day [3117] of one's birth. [3205]
2
[It is] better [2896] to go [3212] to the house [1004] of mourning, [0060] than to go [3212] to the house [1004] of feasting: [4960] for [0834] that [is] the end [5490] of all men; [0120] and the living [2416] will lay [5414] [it] to his heart. [3820]
3
Sorrow [3708] [is] better [2896] than laughter: [7814] for by the sadness [7455] of the countenance [6440] the heart [3820] is made better. [3190]
4
The heart [3820] of the wise [2450] [is] in the house [1004] of mourning; [0060] but the heart [3820] of fools [3684] [is] in the house [1004] of mirth. [8057]
5
[It is] better [2896] to hear [8085] the rebuke [1606] of the wise, [2450] than for a man [0376] to hear [8085] the song [7892] of fools. [3684]
6
For as the crackling [6963] of thorns [5518] under a pot, [5518] so [is] the laughter [7814] of the fool: [3684] this also [is] vanity. [1892]
7
Surely oppression [6233] maketh a wise man [2450] mad; [1984] and a gift [4979] destroyeth [0006] the heart. [3820]
8
Better [2896] [is] the end [0319] of a thing [1697] than the beginning [7225] thereof: [and] the patient [0750] in spirit [7307] [is] better [2896] than the proud [1362] in spirit. [7307]
9
Be not hasty [0926] in thy spirit [7307] to be angry: [3707] for anger [3708] resteth [5117] in the bosom [2436] of fools. [3684]
10
Say [0559] not thou, What is [the cause] that the former [7223] days [3117] were better [2896] than these? for thou dost not enquire [7592] wisely [2451] concerning this.
11
Wisdom [2451] [is] good [2896] with an inheritance: [5159] and [by it there is] profit [3148] to them that see [7200] the sun. [8121]
12
For wisdom [2451] [is] a defence, [6738] [and] money [3701] [is] a defence: [6738] but the excellency [3504] of knowledge [1847] [is, that] wisdom [2451] giveth life [2421] to them that have [1167] it.
13
Consider [7200] the work [4639] of God: [0430] for who can [3201] make [that] straight, [8626] which he hath made crooked? [5791]
14
In the day [3117] of prosperity [2896] be joyful, [2896] but in the day [3117] of adversity [7451] consider: [7200] God [0430] also hath set [6213] the one over against [5980] the other, to the end [1700] that man [0120] should find [4672] nothing [3808] [3972] after [0310] him.
15
All [things] have I seen [7200] in the days [3117] of my vanity: [1892] there is [3426] a just [6662] [man] that perisheth [0006] in his righteousness, [6664] and there is [3426] a wicked [7563] [man] that prolongeth [0748] [his life] in his wickedness. [7451]
16
Be not righteous [6662] over much; [7235] neither make thyself over [3148] wise: [2449] why shouldest thou destroy [8074] thyself?
17
Be not over much [7235] wicked, [7561] neither be thou foolish: [5530] why shouldest thou die [4191] before thy time? [6256]
18
[It is] good [2896] that thou shouldest take hold [0270] of this; [2088] yea, also from this [2088] withdraw [3240] not thine hand: [3027] for he that feareth [3373] God [0430] shall come forth [3318] of them all.
19
Wisdom [2451] strengtheneth [5810] the wise [2450] more than ten [6235] mighty [7989] [men] which are in the city. [5892]
20
For [there is] not a just [6662] man [0120] upon earth, [0776] that doeth [6213] good, [2896] and sinneth [2398] not.
21
Also take [5414] no heed [3820] unto all words [1697] that are spoken; [1696] lest thou hear [8085] thy servant [5650] curse [7043] thee:
22
For oftentimes [6471] [7227] also thine own heart [3820] knoweth [3045] that thou thyself likewise hast cursed [7043] others. [0312]
23
All this [2090] have I proved [5254] by wisdom: [2451] I said, [0559] I will be wise; [2449] but it [was] far [7350] from me.
24
That which is far off, [7350] and exceeding deep, [6013] [6013] who can find it out? [4672]
25
I applied [5437] mine heart [3820] to know, [3045] and to search, [8446] and to seek out [1245] wisdom, [2451] and the reason [2808] [of things], and to know [3045] the wickedness [7562] of folly, [3689] even of foolishness [5531] [and] madness: [1947]
26
And I find [4672] more bitter [4751] than death [4194] the woman, [0802] whose heart [3820] [is] snares [4685] and nets, [2764] [and] her hands [3027] [as] bands: [0612] whoso pleaseth [2896] [6440] God [0430] shall escape [4422] from her; but the sinner [2398] shall be taken [3920] by her.
27
Behold, [7200] this have I found, [4672] saith [0559] the preacher, [6953] [counting] one [0259] by one, [0259] to find out [4672] the account: [2808]
28
Which yet my soul [5315] seeketh, [1245] but I find [4672] not: one [0259] man [0120] among a thousand [0505] have I found; [4672] but a woman [0802] among all those have I not found. [4672]
29
Lo, [7200] this only [0905] have I found, [4672] that God [0430] hath made [6213] man [0120] upright; [3477] but they have sought out [1245] many [7227] inventions. [2810]
