9 If/because DOM all this I _ have_ given to heart _ my and _ to _ concluded DOM all this (cmp) the _ righteous and _ the _ wise and _ deeds _ their in/on/at/with _ hand the _ ʼElohīm both love as _ well_ as hatred not [is] _ knowing the _ humankind the _ everything to/for _ confronts _ them .
2 The _ everything just _ as for _ the_ all fate one to _ the_ righteous and _ to _ the_ wicked to _ the_ good and _ to _ the_ clean and _ to _ the_ unclean and _ to _ those_ sacrifice and _ to _ the _ one not _ he [is] _ sacrificing as _ the_ good so _ the_ sinner the _ swear just _ as an _ oath [one] _ fearing .
3 This [is] _ an_ evil in/on/at/with _ all that it _ is_ done under the _ sun if/because fate one to _ the_ everyone and _ also the _ heart of _ the_ children the _ humankind [is] _ full evil and _ madness in/on/at/with _ hearts _ their in/on/at/with _ live _ they and _ after _ that to the _ dead .
4 If/because who [is _ the_ one]_ who he _ is_ united[fn ] to all the _ living there _ [is] hope if/because to _ dog living it [is] _ good more _ than the _ lion the _ dead .
5 If/because the _ life [are] _ knowing that _ die and _ the _ dead not _ they [are] _ knowing anything and _ no still to/for _ them a _ reward if/because it _ is_ forgotten memory _ them .
6 Both love _ their as _ well_ as hate _ their as _ well_ as envy _ their already it _ has_ perished and _ share there _ [is]_ not to/for _ them again have _ ever in/on/at/with _ all that it _ is_ done under the _ sun .
7 Go eat in/on/at/with _ joy bread _ your and _ drink in/on/at/with _ heart good wine _ your if/because already he _ has_ taken_ pleasure_ in the _ ʼElohīm DOM what _ do_ your .
8 In _ all time let _ them_ be garments _ your white and _ oil on head _ your not let _ it_ be_ lacking .
9 See life with a _ wife whom you _ love all the _ days of _ the_ life vain _ your which he _ has_ given to/for _ yourself(m) under the _ sun all the _ days fleeting _ your if/because it portion _ your in/on/at/with _ life and _ in/on/at/with _ toil _ your which you [are] _ toiling under the _ sun .
10 All that it _ finds hand _ your for _ doing in/on/at/with _ might _ your do if/because there _ [is]_ not work and _ planning and _ knowledge and _ wisdom in/on/at/with _ sheol where you [are] _ going there _ to .
11 I _ returned and _ saw under the _ sun if/because _ that not to _ the_ swift the _ race and _ not to _ the_ strong the _ battle and _ also not to _ THE_ wise food and _ also not to _ the_ intelligent wealth and _ also not to _ the_ skillful favour if/because time and _ chance it _ happens_ to DOM all _ them .
12 If/because also not he _ knows the _ humankind DOM time _ his like _ the_ fish that _ caught in/on/at/with _ net evil and _ as/like _ birds the _ caught in/on/at/with _ snare so _ they [are] _ ensnared the _ children the _ humankind at _ time evil when _ that _ falls upon _ them suddenly .
13 Also this I _ have_ seen wisdom under the _ sun and _ great it to _ me .
14 A _ city small and _ people in/on/at/with _ it [were] _ few and _ came to _ her/it a _ king great and _ surrounded DOM _ her/it and _ building on/upon _ it(f) siege _ works great .
15 And _ found in/on/at/with _ it a _ man poor wise and _ delivered he DOM the _ city in/on/at/with _ wisdom _ his and _ human/ʼĀdām not he _ remembered DOM the _ man the _ poor the _ that .
[fn ] [fn ] [fn ] 16 and _ said I [is] _ good wisdom than _ strength and _ wisdom the _ poor [is] _ despised and _ words _ his not _ they [are] _ heard .
17 [the] _ words of _ wise_ [people] in/on/at/with _ quiet heard than _ shouting of _ a_ ruler in/on/at/with _ fools .
18 [is] _ good wisdom than _ weapons of _ war and _ sinner one he _ will_ destroy good much .
