5:1 ¶
Keep thy foot, whensoever thou goest to the house of God; and [when thou art] near to hear, let thy sacrifice [be] better than the gift of fools: for they know not that they are doing evil. |
|
5:1 ¶
Keep°°
thy foot°
when°
thou goest°°°
to°
the house°
of Elohim,°
and be more ready°°
to hear,°°
than to give°°°
the sacrifice°
of fools:°
for they consider°°
not°
that°
they do°°
evil.° |
5:2
Be not hasty with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be swift to utter anything before God; for God is in heaven above, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few. |
|
5:2
Be not°
rash°°
with°
thy mouth,°
and let not°
thine heart°
be hasty°°
to utter°°
[any] thing°
before°
Elohim:°
for°
Elohim°
[is] in heaven,°
and thou°
upon°
earth:°
therefore°°
let thy words°
be°
few.° |
5:3
For through the multitude of trial a dream comes; and a fool's voice is with a multitude of words. |
|
5:3
For°
a dream°
cometh°°
through the multitude°
of business;°
and a fool's°
voice°
[is known] by multitude°
of words.° |
5:4
Whenever thou shalt vow a vow to God, defer not to pay it; for [he has] no pleasure in fools: pay thou therefore whatsoever thou shalt have vowed. |
|
5:4
When°
thou vowest°°
a vow°
unto Elohim,°
defer°°
not°
to pay°°
it; for°
[he hath] no°
pleasure°
in fools:°
pay°°°
that which°
thou hast vowed.°° |
5:5
[It is] better that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay. |
|
5:5
Better°
[is it] that°
thou shouldest not°
vow,°°
than that thou shouldest vow°°°°
and not°
pay.°° |
5:6
Suffer not thy mouth to lead thy flesh to sin; and say not in the presence of God, It was an error: lest God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the works of thy hands. |
|
5:6
Suffer°°
not°°
thy mouth°
to cause°
thy flesh°
to sin;°°
neither°
say°°
thou before°
the angel,°
that°
it°
[was] an error:°
wherefore°
should Elohim°
be angry°°
at°
thy voice,°
and destroy°°°
the work°
of thine hands?° |
5:7
For [there is evil] in a multitude of dreams and vanities and many words: but fear thou God. |
|
5:7
For°
in the multitude°
of dreams°
and many°°
words°
[there are] also [divers] vanities:°
but°
fear°°
thou°
Elohim.° |
5:8 ¶
If thou shouldest see the oppression of the poor, and the wresting of judgment and of justice in the land, wonder not at the matter: for [there is] a high one to watch over him that is high, and high ones over them. |
|
5:8 ¶
If°
thou seest°°
the oppression°
of the poor,°°
and violent°
perverting°
of judgment°
and justice°
in a province,°
marvel°°
not°
at°
the matter:°
for°
[he that is] higher°
than°°
the highest°
regardeth;°°
and [there be] higher°
than°
they.° |
5:9 ¶
Also the abundance of the earth is for every one: the king [is dependent on] the tilled field. |
|
5:9 ¶
Moreover the profit°
of the earth°
is for all:°
the king°
[himself] is served°°
by the field.° |
5:10
He that loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver: and who has loved gain, in the abundance thereof? this is also vanity. |
|
5:10
He that loveth°°
silver°
shall not°
be satisfied°°
with silver;°
nor he°
that loveth°°
abundance°
with increase:°
this°
[is] also°
vanity.° |
5:11
In the multitude of good they are increased that eat it: and what virtue has the owner, but the right of beholding [it] with his eyes? |
|
5:11
When goods°
increase,°°
they are increased°°
that eat°°
them: and what°
good°
[is there] to the owners°
thereof, saving°°
the beholding°°°°°
[of them] with their eyes?° |
5:12
The sleep of a servant is sweet, whether he eat little or much: but to one who is satiated with wealth, there is none that suffers him to sleep. |
|
5:12
The sleep°
of a labouring man°°
[is] sweet,°
whether°
he eat°°
little°
or°
much:°°
but the abundance°
of the rich°
will not°
suffer°°°
him to sleep.°° |
5:13
There is an infirmity which I have seen under the sun, [namely], wealth kept for its owner to his hurt. |
|
5:13
There is°
a sore°°
evil°
[which] I have seen°°
under°
the sun,°
[namely], riches°
kept°°
for the owners°
thereof to their hurt.° |
5:14
And that wealth shall perish in an evil trouble: and [the man] begets a son, and there is nothing in his hand. |
|
5:14
But those°
riches°
perish°°
by evil°
travail:°
and he begetteth°°
a son,°
and [there is] nothing°°
in his hand.° |
5:15
As he came forth naked from his mother's womb, he shall return back as he came, and he shall receive nothing for his labour, that it should go [with him] in his hand. |
|
5:15
As°
he came forth°°
of his mother's°
womb,°°
naked°
shall he return°°
to go°°°
as he came,°°°
and shall take°°
nothing°°
of his labour,°
which he may carry away°°°°
in his hand.° |
5:16
And this is also an evil infirmity: for as he came, so also shall he return: and what is his gain, for which he vainly labours? |
|
5:16
And this°
also°
[is] a sore°°
evil,°
[that] in all°
points°
as he came,°°°
so°
shall he go:°°°
and what°
profit°
hath he that hath laboured°°°
for the wind?° |
5:17
Yea, all his days are in darkness, and in mourning, and much sorrow, and infirmity, and wrath. |
|
5:17
All°
his days°
also°
he eateth°°
in darkness,°
and [he hath] much°°
sorrow°°
and wrath°
with his sickness.° |
5:18 ¶
Behold, I have seen good, that it is a fine thing [for a man] to eat and to drink, and to see good in all his labour in which he may labour under the sun, [all] the number of the days of his life which God has given to him: for it is his portion. |
|
5:18 ¶
Behold°
[that] which°
I°
have seen:°°
[it is] good°
and comely°
[for one] to eat°°
and to drink,°°
and to enjoy°°
the good°
of all°
his labour°
that he taketh°°°
under°
the sun°
all°
the days°
of his life,°
which°
Elohim°
giveth°°
him: for°
it°
[is] his portion.° |
5:19
Yea, and [as for] every man to whom God has given wealth and possessions, and has given him power to eat thereof, and to receive his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God. |
|
5:19
Every°
man°
also°
to whom°
Elohim°
hath given°°
riches°
and wealth,°
and hath given him power°°
to eat°°
thereof,°
and to take°°°
his portion,°
and to rejoice°°
in his labour;°
this°
[is] the gift°
of Elohim.° |
5:20
For he shall not much remember the days of his life; for God troubles him in the mirth of his heart. |
|
5:20
For°
he shall not°
much°°
remember°°°
the days°
of his life;°
because°
Elohim°
answereth°°°
[him] in the joy°
of his heart.° |
