Ecclesiastes 2:24-26

[There is] nothing better
<02896>
for a man
<0120>_,
[than] that he should eat
<0398> (8799)
and drink
<08354> (8804)_,
and [that] he should make his soul
<05315>
enjoy
<07200> (8689)
good
<02896>
in his labour
<05999>_.
This
<02090>
also I saw
<07200> (8804)_,
that it [was] from the hand
<03027>
of God
<0430>_.
{should make...: or, delight his senses}
For who can eat
<0398> (8799)_,
or who else can hasten
<02363> (8799)
[hereunto], more
<02351>
than I?
For [God] giveth
<05414> (8804)
to a man
<0120>
that [is] good
<02896>
in his sight
<06440>
wisdom
<02451>_,
and knowledge
<01847>_,
and joy
<08057>_:
but to the sinner
<02398> (8802)
he giveth
<05414> (8804)
travail
<06045>_,
to gather
<0622> (8800)
and to heap up
<03664> (8800)_,
that he may give
<05414> (8800)
to [him that is] good
<02896>
before
<06440>
God
<0430>_.
This also [is] vanity
<01892>
and vexation
<07469>
of spirit
<07307>_.
{in his...: Heb. before him}
