1 # So I returned <07725> (8804), and considered <07200> (8799) all the oppressions <06217> that are done <06213> (8737) under the sun <08121>: and behold the tears <01832> of such as were oppressed <06231> (8803), and they had no comforter <05162> (8764); and on the side <03027> of their oppressors <06231> (8802) there was power <03581>; but they had no comforter <05162> (8764).
2 Wherefore I praised <07623> (8764) the dead <04191> (8801) which are already <03528> dead <04191> (8804) more than the living <02416> which are yet <05728> alive <02416>.
3 Yea, better <02896> is he than both <08147> they, which hath not yet <05728> been, who hath not seen <07200> (8804) the evil <07451> work <04639> that is done <06213> (8738) under the sun <08121>.
4 # Again, I considered <07200> (8804) all travail <05999>, and every right <03788> work <04639>, that for this a man <0376> is envied <07068> of his neighbour <07453>. This is also vanity <01892> and vexation <07469> of spirit <07307> .
5 The fool <03684> foldeth <02263> <00> his hands <03027> together <02263> (8802), and eateth <0398> (8802) his own flesh <01320>.
6 Better <02896> is an handful <03709> with quietness <05183>, than both the hands <02651> full <04393> with travail <05999> and vexation <07469> of spirit <07307>.
7 # Then I returned <07725> (8804), and I saw <07200> (8799) vanity <01892> under the sun <08121>.
8 There is <03426> one <0259> alone, and there is not a second <08145>; yea, he hath neither child <01121> nor brother <0251>: yet is there no end <07093> of all his labour <05999>; neither is his eye <05869> satisfied <07646> (8799) with riches <06239>; neither saith he, For whom do I labour <06001>, and bereave <02637> (8764) my soul <05315> of good <02896>? This is also vanity <01892>, yea, it is a sore <07451> travail <06045>.
9 Two <08147> are better <02896> than one <0259>; because they have <03426> a good <02896> reward <07939> for their labour <05999>.
 - DAILY ENTREPRENEUR
10 For if they fall <05307> (8799), the one <0259> will lift up <06965> (8686) his fellow <02270>: but woe <0337> to him that is alone <0259> when he falleth <05307> (8799); for he hath not another <08145> to help him up <06965> (8687).
11 Again <01571>, if two <08147> lie together <07901> (8799), then they have heat <02552> (8804): but how can one <0259> be warm <03179> (8799) alone?
12 And if one <0259> prevail <08630> (8799) against him, two <08147> shall withstand <05975> (8799) him; and a threefold <08027> (8794) cord <02339> is not quickly <04120> broken <05423> (8735).
13 # Better <02896> is a poor <04542> and a wise <02450> child <03206> than an old <02205> and foolish <03684> king <04428>, who will <03045> (8804) no more be admonished <02094> (8736).
14 For out of prison <0631> (8803) <01004> he cometh <03318> (8804) to reign <04427> (8800) ; whereas also he that is born <03205> (8738) in his kingdom <04438> becometh poor <07326> (8802).
15 I considered <07200> (8804) all the living <02416> which walk <01980> (8764) under the sun <08121> , with the second <08145> child <03206> that shall stand up <05975> (8799) in his stead.
16 There is no end <07093> of all the people <05971>, even of all that have been before <06440> them: they also that come after <0314> shall not rejoice <08055> (8799) in him. Surely this also is vanity <01892> and vexation <07475> of spirit <07307> .
