OET (OET-LV) And_who is_knowing a_wise_person will_he_be or a_fool and_he_will_have_power in_all toil_of_my which_I_have_toiled and_which_I_have_been_wise under the_sun also this is_futility.

OET (OET-RV) And who knows whether my successor will be wise or a fool?
 ⇔ He’ll have authority over all my projects that I worked hard on
 ⇔ and which I’ve applied wisdom to in this world.
 ⇔ That also was pointless.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) For who knows whether he will be a wise man or a fool?

(Some words not found in UHB: and,who? knows a,wise_[person]? will_belong or fool and,he_will_have_power in=all toil_of,my which,I_have_toiled and,which,I_have_been_wise below/instead_of the,sun also/yet this Abel )

The author uses this rhetorical question to emphasize that no one knows the character the man who will inherit his wealth. Alternate translation: “For no one knows whether he will be a wise man or a fool.”

(Occurrence 0) he will be

(Some words not found in UHB: and,who? knows a,wise_[person]? will_belong or fool and,he_will_have_power in=all toil_of,my which,I_have_toiled and,which,I_have_been_wise below/instead_of the,sun also/yet this Abel )

The word “he” refers to the author’s heir.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

(Occurrence 0) under the sun

(Some words not found in UHB: and,who? knows a,wise_[person]? will_belong or fool and,he_will_have_power in=all toil_of,my which,I_have_toiled and,which,I_have_been_wise below/instead_of the,sun also/yet this Abel )

This refers to things that are done on earth. See how you translated this in [Ecclesiastes 1:3](../01/03.md). Alternate translation: “on the earth”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) that my work and wisdom have built

(Some words not found in UHB: and,who? knows a,wise_[person]? will_belong or fool and,he_will_have_power in=all toil_of,my which,I_have_toiled and,which,I_have_been_wise below/instead_of the,sun also/yet this Abel )

Here the author’s “work” and “wisdom” represent himself and the things he did in his wisdom. He probably had help with the literal buildings. Alternate translation: “that I worked very hard and wisely to build”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) vapor

(Some words not found in UHB: and,who? knows a,wise_[person]? will_belong or fool and,he_will_have_power in=all toil_of,my which,I_have_toiled and,which,I_have_been_wise below/instead_of the,sun also/yet this Abel )

The author speaks of useless and meaningless things as if they were mist. See how you translated this in [Ecclesiastes 1:14](../01/14.md). Alternate translation: “as useless as vapor” or “meaningless”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

2:19 Foolish, destructive successors are more of a threat to wise accomplishments than wise successors, but since the Teacher couldn’t tell what kind of successors he would have, his accomplishments were meaningless to him. Solomon’s immediate successor—his son Rehoboam—turned out to be foolish (see 1 Kgs 12:1-20).
