unleash His full wrath.

Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and
vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.

toiled to
achieve, I found everything to be
futile, a pursuit of the wind; there was nothing to be gained under the sun.
The wise man’s eyes are in his head; but the

realize that one fate overcomes them both.
And who knoweth whether he shall be a wise man or a
fool?
yet shall he have rule over all my labour wherein I have laboured, and wherein I have shewed myself wise under the sun. This is also vanity.
And who knows whether that man will be wise or
foolish?
Yet he will take over all the labor at which I have worked
skillfully under the sun. This too is
futile.
For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in
equity;
yet to a man that hath not laboured therein shall he leave it for his portion. This also is vanity and a great evil.
When there is a man who has labored with wisdom, knowledge, and skill, and he must give his portion to a man who has not worked for it, this too is
futile and a great evil.

yea, he hath neither child nor brother:
yet is there no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he, For whom do I labour, and
bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity,
yea, it is a
sore travail.
There is a man all alone, without even a son or brother. And though there is no end to his labor, his eyes are still not content with his wealth: “For whom do I
toil and
bereave my soul of enjoyment?” This too is
futile—a
miserable task.
There is no end of all the people, even of all that have been before them: they also that come after shall not
rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and
vexation of spirit.
There is no limit to all the people who were before them.
Yet the successor will not be celebrated by those who come even later. This too is
futile and a pursuit of the wind.
A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.
God gives a man riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing his heart desires; but God does not allow him to enjoy them. Instead, a stranger will enjoy them. This is
futile and a
grievous affliction.
If a man
beget an hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years be many, and his soul be not filled with good, and also that he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he.
A man may father a hundred children and live for many years;
yet no matter how long he lives, if he is unsatisfied with his prosperity and does not even receive a proper burial, I say that a
stillborn child is better off than he.
Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told,
yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?
even if he lives a thousand years twice over but fails to enjoy his prosperity. Do not all go to the same place?
All the labour of man is for his mouth, and
yet the
appetite is not filled.
All a man’s labor is for his mouth,
yet his
appetite is never satisfied.

Though a
sinner do evil an hundred times, and his days be prolonged,
yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him:
Although a
sinner does evil a hundred times and still lives long,
yet I also know that it will go well with those who fear God, who are
reverent in His presence.
But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he
prolong his days, which are as a shadow; because he feareth not before God.
Yet because the wicked do not fear God, it will not go well with them, and their days will not
lengthen like a shadow.
Then I
beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek it out,
yet he shall not find it;
yea further; though a wise man think to know it,
yet shall he not be able to find it.
I saw every work of God, and that a man is unable to
comprehend the work that is done under the sun.
Despite his efforts to search it out, he cannot find its meaning; even if the wise man claims to know, he is unable to
comprehend.
I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
I saw something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; neither is the bread to the wise, nor the wealth to the intelligent, nor the favor to the skillful. For time and chance happen to all.
Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.
Now a poor wise man was found in the city, and he saved the city by his wisdom. Yet no one remembered that poor man.
A
fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?
Yet the
fool multiplies words. No one knows what is coming, and who can tell him what will come after him?
But if a man live many years, and
rejoice in them all;
yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh is vanity.
So if a man lives many years, let him
rejoice in them all. But let him remember the days of darkness, for they will be many. Everything to come is
futile.

Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.

yet lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of
Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.

But
yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a
teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.
And though a tenth remains in the land, it will be burned again. As the
terebinth and oak leave stumps when felled, so the holy seed will be a
stump in the land.”
For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea,
yet a
remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness.

remnant will return. Destruction has been decreed, overflowing with righteousness.

yet a very little while, and the
indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction.

yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall
cleave to the house of Jacob.

hell, to the sides of the pit.

Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit.
Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the
shaking of an olive tree, two or three
berries in the top of the
uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.
Yet gleanings will remain, like an olive tree that has been beaten— two or three
berries atop the tree, four or five on its fruitful branches,” declares the LORD, the God of Israel.
