5 | The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose. | H · G · S sun goeth down |
6 | The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits. | H · G · S whirleth about continually |
7 | All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again. | H · G · S from whence thither they return |
8 | All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing. | H · G · S |
9 | The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. | H · G · S no new thing |
10 | Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. | H · G · S |

12 | I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem. | H · G · S |
13 | And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. | H · G · S |
14 | I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. | H · G · S all the works all is vanity |
15 | That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered. | H · G · S |
16 | I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge. | H · G · S |
17 | And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit. | H · G · S |
18 |
For
in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge
increaseth sorrow.

H · G · S is much grief |
