3 Be not408 hasty926 to go1980 out of his sight:4480 6440 stand5975 not408 in an evil7451 thing;1697 for3588 he doeth6213 whatsoever3605 834 pleaseth2654 him.

4 Where834 the word1697 of a king4428 is, there is power:7983 and who4310 may say559 unto him, What4100 doest6213 thou?

|
5 Whoso keepeth8104 the commandment4687 shall feel3045 no3808 evil7451 thing:1697 and a wise man's2450 heart3820 discerneth3045 both time6256 and judgment.4941
|
5 Whoever keeps8104 the commandment4687 shall feel3045 no3808 evil7451 thing:1697 and a wise2450 man's heart3820 discerns3045 both time6256 and judgment.4941
|
6 Because3588 to every3605 purpose2656 there is3426 time6256 and judgment,4941 therefore3588 the misery7451 of man120 is great7227 upon5921 him.

7 For3588 he knoweth3045 not369 that4100 which shall be:7945 1961 for3588 who4310 can tell5046 him when834 it shall be?1961
|
7 For he knows3045 not that which4100 shall be: for who can tell5046 him when3588 834 it shall be?
|
8 There is no369 man120 that hath power7989 over the spirit7307 to retain3607 853 the spirit;7307 neither369 hath he power7983 in the day3117 of death:4194 and there is no369 discharge4917 in that war;4421 neither3808 shall wickedness7562 deliver4422 853 those that are given1167 to it.

9 All3605 this2088 have I seen,7200 and applied5414 853 my heart3820 unto every3605 work4639 that834 is done6213 under8478 the sun:8121 there is a time6256 wherein834 one man120 ruleth over7980 another120 to his own hurt.7451

10 And so3651 I saw7200 the wicked7563 buried,6912 who had come935 and gone1980 from the place4480 4725 of the holy,6918 and they were forgotten7911 in the city5892 where834 they had so3651 done:6213 this2088 is also1571 vanity.1892

|
11 Because834 sentence against6599 an evil7451 work4639 is not369 executed6213 speedily,4120 therefore5921 3651 the heart3820 of the sons1121 of men120 is fully set4390 in them to do6213 evil.7451

|
12 Though834 a sinner2398 do6213 evil7451 a hundred times,3967 and his days be prolonged,748 yet3588 surely1571 I589 know3045 that834 it shall be1961 well2896 with them that fear3373 God,430 which834 fear3372 before4480 6440 him:

|
13 But it shall not3808 be1961 well2896 with the wicked,7563 neither3808 shall he prolong748 his days,3117 which are as a shadow;6738 because834 he feareth3372 not369 before4480 6440 God.430

14 There is3426 a vanity1892 which834 is done6213 upon5921 the earth;776 that834 there be3426 just6662 men, unto whom834 413 it happeneth5060 according to the work4639 of the wicked;7563 again, there be3426 wicked7563 men, to413 whom it happeneth7945 5060 according to the work4639 of the righteous:6662 I said559 that this also2088 7945 1571 is vanity.1892

14 There is a vanity1892 which834 is done6213 on the earth;776 that there be just6662 men, to whom413 it happens5060 according to the work4639 of the wicked;7563 again, there be wicked7563 men, to whom413 it happens5060 according to the work4639 of the righteous:6662 I said559 that this2088 also1571 is vanity.1892

15 Then I589 commended7623 853 mirth,8057 because834 a man120 hath no369 better2896 thing under8478 the sun,8121 than3588 518 to eat,398 and to drink,8354 and to be merry:8055 for that1931 shall abide3867 with him of his labor5999 the days3117 of his life,2416 which834 God430 giveth5414 him under8478 the sun.8121

16 When834 I applied5414 853 mine heart3820 to know3045 wisdom,2451 and to see7200 853 the business6045 that834 is done6213 upon5921 the earth:776 (for3588 also1571 there is that neither369 day3117 nor night3915 seeth7200 sleep8142 with his eyes: )5869

17 Then I beheld7200 853 all3605 the work4639 of God,430 that3588 a man120 cannot3808 3201 find out4672 853 the work4639 that834 is done6213 under8478 the sun:8121 because7945 though834 a man120 labor5998 to seek it out,1245 yet he shall not3808 find4672 it; yea1571 further; though518 a wise2450 man think559 to know3045 it, yet shall he not3808 be able3201 to find4672 it.
