Ecclesiastes 1:1 (RV) Revised Version

1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.
2 Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher; vanity of vanities, all is vanity.
3 What profit hath man of all his labour wherein he laboureth under the sun?
4 One generation goeth, and another generation cometh; and the earth abideth for ever.
5 The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he ariseth.
6 The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it turneth about continually in its course, and the wind returneth again to its circuits.
7 All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full; unto the place whither the rivers go, thither they go again.
8 All things are full of weariness; man cannot utter {cf15i it}: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.
9 That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
10 Is there a thing whereof men say, See, this is new? it hath been already, in the ages which were before us.
11 There is no remembrance of the former {cf15i generations}; neither shall there be any remembrance of the latter {cf15i generations} that are to come, among those that shall come after.
12 I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
13 And I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven: it is a sore travail that God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith.
14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.
15 That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered.
16 I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I have gotten me great wisdom above all that were before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart hath had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.
17 And I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also was a striving after wind.
18 For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.

2 Vanity H1892 of vanities H1892 , saith H559 VQQ3MS the Preacher H6953 , vanity H1892 of vanities H1892 ; all H3605 is vanity H1892 .
3 What H4100 IPRO profit H3504 hath a man H120 LD-NMS of all H3605 B-CMS his labor H5999 which he taketh H5998 under H8478 NMS the sun H8121 ?
4 One generation H1755 passeth away H1980 , and another generation H1755 cometh H935 VQPMS : but the earth H776 WD-GFS abideth H5975 forever H5769 L-NMS .
5 The sun H8121 D-NMS also ariseth H2224 , and the sun H8121 goeth down H935 , and hasteth H7602 to H413 W-PREP his place H4725 where H8033 ADV he H1931 PPRO-3MS arose H2224 .
6 The wind H7307 goeth H1980 VQPMS toward H413 PREP the south H1864 , and turneth about H5437 unto H413 PREP the north H6828 NFS ; it whirleth about H1980 VQPMS continually H5437 , and the wind H7307 returneth again H7725 VQQ3MS according H5921 W-PREP to his circuits H5439 .
7 All H3605 NMS the rivers H5158 run H1980 into H413 PREP the sea H3220 D-NMS ; yet the sea H3220 is not H369 full H4392 ; unto H413 PREP the place H4725 CMS from whence the rivers H5158 come H1980 , thither H8033 ADV they H1992 PPRO-3MP return H7725 again H1980 .
8 All H3605 NMS things H1697 AMP are full of labor H3023 ; man H376 NMS cannot H3201 VQY3MS utter H1696 it : the eye H5869 NMS is not H3808 NADV satisfied H7646 with seeing H7200 L-VQFC , nor H3808 NADV the ear H241 NFS filled H4390 with hearing H8085 .
9 The thing H4100 IPRO that hath been H7945 , it H1931 PPRO-3MS is that which shall be ; and that H4100 IPRO which is done H7945 is that H1931 PPRO-3MS which shall be done H7945 : and there is no H369 W-NPAR new H2319 thing under H8478 NMS the sun H8121 .
10 Is there H3426 PART any thing H1697 VQPMS whereof it may be said H7945 , See H7200 VQI2MS , this H2088 DPRO is new H2319 ? it H1931 PPRO-3MS hath been H1961 VQQ3MS already H3528 of old time H5769 , which H834 RPRO was H1961 VQQ3MS before H6440 us .
11 There is no H369 NPAR remembrance H2146 of former H7223 things ; neither H1571 W-CONJ shall there be H1961 any remembrance H2146 of things that are to come H7945 with H5973 PREP those that shall come H7945 after H314 .
12 I H589 PPRO-1MS the Preacher H6953 was H1961 VQQ1MS king H4428 NMS over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 in Jerusalem H3389 .
13 And I gave H5414 my heart H3820 NMS-1MS to seek H1875 and search out H8446 by wisdom H2451 concerning H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS things that H834 RPRO are done H6213 under H8478 NMS heaven H8064 D-AMP : this H1931 PPRO-3MS sore H7451 AMS travail H6045 hath God H430 EDP given H5414 VQQ3MS to the sons H1121 L-CMP of man H120 D-NMS to be exercised H6031 therewith .
14 I have seen H7200 VQQ1MS all H3605 NMS the works H4639 that are done H7945 under H8478 NMS the sun H8121 ; and , behold H2009 IJEC , all H3605 NMS is vanity H1892 NMS and vexation H7469 of spirit H7307 NMS .
15 That which is crooked H5791 cannot H3201 VQY3MS be made straight H8626 : and that which is wanting H2642 cannot H3201 VQY3MS be numbered H4487 .
16 I H589 PPRO-1MS communed H1696 VPQ1MS with H5973 PREP mine own heart H3820 NMS-1MS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Lo H2009 IJEC , I H589 PPRO-1MS am come to great estate H1431 , and have gotten more H3254 wisdom H2451 NFS than H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS they that H834 RPRO have been H1961 VQQ3MS before H6440 L-CMP me in H5921 PREP Jerusalem H3389 : yea , my heart H3820 NMS-1MS had great H7235 VHFA experience H7200 VQQ3MS of wisdom H2451 NFS and knowledge H1847 .
17 And I gave H5414 my heart H3820 NMS-1MS to know H3045 L-VQFC wisdom H2451 NFS , and to know H3045 madness H1947 and folly H5531 : I perceived H3045 VQY1MS that this H2088 DPRO also H7945 is vexation H7475 of spirit H7307 NMS .
18 For H3588 CONJ in much H7230 wisdom H2451 NFS is much H7230 grief H3708 : and he that increaseth H3254 knowledge H1847 NFS increaseth H3254 sorrow H4341 .
