G4151 (N-GSN)

For there is a man whose labor is with wisdom, with knowledge, and with skillfulness; yet he shall leave it for his portion to a man who has not labored for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.

For H3588 there is H3426 a man H120 whose labour H5999 is in wisdom, H2451 and in knowledge, H1847 and in equity; H3788 yet to a man H120 that hath H5998 not H3808 laboured H5998 therein shall he leave^§ it H5414 for his portion. H2506 This H2088 also H1571 is vanity H1892 and a great H7227 evil. H7451

ὅτι G3754 (CONJ) ἔστιν G2076 (V-PAI-3S) ἄνθρωπος, G444 (N-NSM) οὗ G3739 (R-GSM) μόχθος G3449 (N-NSM) αὐτοῦ G846 (P-GSM) ἐν G1722 (PREP) σοφίᾳ G4678 (N-DSF) καὶ G2532 (CONJ) ἐν G1722 (PREP) γνώσει G1108 (N-DSF) καὶ G2532 (CONJ) ἐν G1722 (PREP) ἀνδρείᾳ, καὶ G2532 (CONJ) ἄνθρωπος, G444 (N-NSM) ὃς G3739 (R-NSM) οὐκ G3756 (PRT-N) ἐμόχθησεν ἐν G1722 (PREP) αὐτῷ, G846 (P-DSM) δώσει G1325 (V-FAI-3S) αὐτῷ G846 (P-DSM) μερίδα G3310 (N-ASF) αὐτοῦ. G846 (P-GSM) Καί G2532 (CONJ) γε G1065 (PRT) τοῦτο G5124 (D-NSN) ματαιότης G3153 (N-NSF) καὶ G2532 (CONJ) πονηρία G4189 (N-NSF) μεγάλη. G3173 (A-NSF)

For what does a man have of all his labor and of the striving of his heart, in which he labors under the sun?

For H3588 what H4100 hath H1933 man H120 of all H3605 his labour, H5999 and of the vexation H7475 of his heart, H3820 wherein he H1931 hath laboured H6001 under H8478 the sun? H8121

Ὅτι G3754 (CONJ) τί G5101 (I-ASN) γίνεται G1096 (V-PNI-3S) τῷ G3588 (T-DSM) ἀνθρώπῳ G444 (N-DSM) ἐν G1722 (PREP) παντὶ G3956 (A-DSM) μόχθῳ G3449 (N-DSM) αὐτοῦ G846 (P-GSM) καὶ G2532 (CONJ) ἐν G1722 (PREP) προαιρέσει καρδίας G2588 (N-GSF) αὐτοῦ, G846 (P-GSM) ᾧ G3739 (R-DSM) αὐτὸς G846 (P-NSM) μοχθεῖ ὑπὸ G5259 (PREP) τὸν G3588 (T-ASM) ἥλιον; G2246 (N-ASM)

For all his days are sorrows, and his travail is grief; yes, even in the night his heart takes no rest. This also is vanity.

For H3588 all H3605 his days H3117 are sorrows, H4341 and his travail H6045 grief; H3708 yea, H1571 his heart H3820 taketh H7901 not H3808 rest H7901 in the night. H3915 This H2088 is H1931 also H1571 vanity. H1892
