13 And _ applied DOM mind _ of_ my to _ seek and _ to _ explore in/on/at/with _ wisdom on all that it _ has_ been_ done under the _ heavens it is _ a_ business evil which _ he_ has_ given god to _ sons _ of the _ humankind to _ busy in/on/over _ him/it .
14 I _ have_ seen DOM all _ of the _ works that _ done under the _ sun and _ see/lo/see the _ all is _ futility and _ chasing _ of wind .
15 that _ which_ is_ bent not it _ is_ able to _ straightened and _ what _ is_ lacking not it _ is_ able to _ counted .
