This OET (very) Literal Version was designed to be used as a view into the original language words, so as to be an aid to understanding the source text for the Readers’ Version, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

9 If/because DOM all _of this I _have _given to heart _of_my and_to_make _clear DOM all _of this (cmp) the_righteous and_the_wise and_deeds _of_their are_in_the _hand _of the_ʼElohīm both love as _well _as hatred not is_knowing the_humankind (the)_everything is_before _of_them.

2 (the)_all just_as for_all fate one belongs_to_righteous and_to_wicked to_good and_to_clean and_to_unclean and_to_who_sacrifices and_to_one_who not_he is_sacrificing as_person as_sinner the_one_who_swears _an _oath just_as an _oath one_fearing.

3 This is_an _evil in_all that it _is _done under the_sun if/because fate one belongs_to_everyone and_also the _heart _of the _children _of the_humankind is_full evil and_madness(es) is_in_heart _of_their in_lives _of_their and_after_it to the _dead_people.

4 If/because who is _the _one_who he _is _united[fn] to all _of the_living there_is hope if/because to_a _dog living it is_good more _than the_lion (the)_dead.

5 If/because the_life are_knowing (cmp)_they_will _die and_the _dead_people not_they are_knowing anything and_there_is_not still to/for_them a _reward if/because memorial _of_their it _is _forgotten.

6 Both love _of_their as _well _as hatred _of_their as _well _as envy _of_their already it _has _perished and_a _portion there_is_not to/for_them again forever_perpetuity in_all that it _is _done under the_sun.

7 Go eat with_joy food _of_your and_drink with_a _heart _of good wine _of_your if/because already he _has _taken _pleasure _in the_ʼElohīm DOM deeds _of_your.

8 In_all time let _them _be clothes _of_your white and_oil on head _of_your not let _it _be _lacking.

9 See life with a _wife whom you _love all _of the _days _of the _life _of your _futility _of_your which he _has _given to/for_yourself(m) under the_sun all _of the _days _of your _futility _of_your if/because it portion _of_is_your in_life and_in_toil _of_your which you are_toiling under the_sun.

10 All that it _finds hand _of_your for_doing with_strength _of_your do if/because there_is_not work and_the_scheme _of _things and_knowledge and_wisdom in_Shəʼōl where you are_going to_(to).

11 I _returned and_I _saw under the_sun if/because _that not belongs_to_ones the_race and_not belongs_to_men the_battle and_also not belongs_to_people food and_also not belongs_to_who_has _understanding wealth and_also not belongs_to_who_has _knowledge favour if/because time and_chance it _happens _to DOM of _them _of_all.

12 If/because also not he _knows the_humankind DOM time _of_his like_fish(es) which_are_caught in_a _net evil and_birds which_are_caught in_snare like_them are_ensnared the _children _of the_humankind to_a _time _of evil when_it_falls on_them suddenly.

13 Also this I _have _seen wisdom under the_sun and_was_great it to_me.

14 A _city small and_men in_it were_few and_he _came to_her/it a _king great and_he _surrounded DOM_her/it and_he _built on/upon_it(f) siege _works great.

15 And_someone _found in_it a _man poor wise and_he _delivered he DOM the_city by_wisdom _of_his and_human/ʼĀdām not he _remembered DOM the_man (the)_poor (the)_that.
[fn][fn][fn]

16 and_I _said I is_good wisdom more_than _strength and_the _wisdom _of the _poor_person is_despised and_words/messages _of_his not_they are_heard.

17 the_words/messages _of wise_people in_quietness heard are_more_than_the_cry _of a _ruler among_fools.

18 is_good wisdom more_than _weapons _of war and_a _sinner one he _will _destroy good much.
