Moreover he hath not seen the sun； nor known any thing： this hath more rest than the other。
6：6那人虽然活千年，再活千年，却不享福，众人岂不都归一个地方去吗。
Yea； though he live a thousand years twice told； yet hath he seen no good： do not all go to one place？
6：7人的劳碌都为口腹，心里却不知足。
All the labour of man is for his mouth； and yet the appetite is not filled。
6：8这样看来，智慧人比愚昧人有什么长处呢。穷人在众人面前知道如何行，有什么长处呢。
For what hath the wise more than the fool？ what hath the poor； that knoweth to walk before the living？
6：9眼睛所看的，比心里妄想的倒好。这也是虚空，也是捕风。
Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire： this is also vanity and vexation of spirit。
6：10先前所有的，早已起了名。并知道何为人。他也不能与那比自己力大的相争。
That which hath been is named already； and it is known that it is man： neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he。
6：11加增虚浮的事既多，这与人有什么益处呢。
Seeing there be many things that increase vanity； what is man the better？
6：12人一生虚度的日子，就如影儿经过。谁知道什么与他有益呢。谁能告诉他身后在日光之下有什么事呢。
For who knoweth what is good for man in this life； all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow？ for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun？
旧约 传道书（Ecclesiastes） 第 7 章 （ 本篇共有 12 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
7：1名誉强如美好的膏油。人死的日子，胜过人生的日子。
A good name is better than precious ointment； and the day of death than the day of one's birth。
7：2往遭丧的家去，强如往宴乐的家去，因为死是众人的结局。活人也必将这事放在心上。
It is better to go to the house of mourning； than to go to the house of feasting： for that is the end of all men； and the living will lay it to his heart。
7：3忧愁强如喜笑，因为面带愁容，终必使心喜乐。
Sorrow is better than laughter： for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better。
7：4智慧人的心，在遭丧之家。愚昧人的心，在快乐之家。
The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning； but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth。
7：5听智慧人的责备，强如听愚昧人的歌唱。
It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise； than for a man to hear the song of fools。
7：6愚昧人的笑声，好像锅下烧荆棘的爆声，这也是虚空。
For as the crackling of thorns under a pot； so is the laughter of the fool： this also is vanity。
7：7勒索使智慧人变为愚妄。贿赂能败坏人的慧心。
Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad； and a gift destroyeth the heart。
7：8事情的终局，强如事情的起头。存心忍耐的，胜过居心骄傲的。
Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof： and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit。
7：9你不要心里急躁恼怒，因为恼怒存在愚昧人的怀中。
Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry： for anger resteth in the bosom of fools。
7：10不要说，先前的日子强过如今的日子，是什么缘故呢。你这样问，不是出于智慧。
Say not thou； What is the cause that the former days were better than these？ for thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this。
7：11智慧和产业并好。而且见天日的人，得智慧更为有益。
Wisdom is good with an inheritance： and by it there is profit to them that see the sun。
7：12因为智慧护庇人，好像银钱护庇人一样。惟独智慧能保全智慧人的生命，这就是知识的益处。
For wisdom is a defence； and money is a defence： but the excellency of knowledge is； that wisdom giveth life to them that have it。
7：13你要察看神的作为，因为神使为曲的，谁能变为直呢。
Consider the work of God： for who can make that straight； which he hath made crooked？
7：14遇亨通的日子，你当喜乐。遭患难的日子，你当思想。因为神使这两样并列，为的是叫人查不出身后有什么事。
In the day of prosperity be joyful； but in the day of adversity consider： God also hath set the one over against the other； to the end that man should find nothing after him。
7：15有义人行义，反致灭亡。有恶人行恶，倒享长寿。这都是我在虚度之日中所见过的。
All things have I seen in the days of my vanity： there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness； and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness。
7：16不要行义过分。也不要过于自逞智慧。何必自取败亡呢。
Be not righteous over much； neither make thyself over wise： why shouldest thou destroy thyself ？
7：17不要行恶过分。也不要为人愚昧。何必不到期而死呢。
Be not over much wicked； neither be thou foolish： why shouldest thou die before thy time？
7：18你持守这个为美。那个也不要松手。因为敬畏神的人，必从这两样出来。
It is good that thou shouldest take hold of this； yea； also from this withdraw not thine hand： for he that feareth God shall e forth of them all。
7：19智慧使有智慧的人，比城中十个官长更有能力。
Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men which are in the city。
7：20时常行善而不犯罪的义人，世上实在没有。
For there is not a just man upon earth； that doeth good； and sinneth not。
7：21人所说的一切话，你不要放在心上，恐怕听见你的仆人咒诅你。
Also take no heed unto all words that are spoken； lest thou hear thy servant curse thee：
7：22因为你心里知道，自己也曾屡次咒诅别人。
For oftentimes also thine own heart knoweth that thou thyself likewise hast cursed others。
7：23我曾用智慧试验这一切事。我说，要得智慧，智慧却离我远。
All this have I proved by wisdom： I said； I will be wise； but it was far from me。
7：24万事之理离我甚远，而且最深，谁能测透呢。
That which is far off； and exceeding deep； who can find it out？
7：25我转念，一心要知道，要考察，要寻求智慧，和万事的理由。又要知道邪恶为愚昧，愚昧为狂妄。
I applied mine heart to know； and to search； and to seek out wisdom； and the reason of things； and to know the wickedness of folly； even of foolishness and madness：
7：26我得知有等妇人，比死还苦，她的心是网罗，手是锁练。凡蒙神喜悦的人，必能躲避她。
And I find more bitter than death the woman； whose heart is snares and nets； and her hands as bands： whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her； but the sinner shall be taken by her。
7：27有罪的人，却被她缠住了。
Behold； this have I found； saith the preacher； counting one by one； to find out the account：
7：28传道者说，看哪，一千男子中，我找到一个正直人。但众女子中，没有找到一个。我将这事一一比较，要寻求其理，我心仍要寻梢，却未曾找到。
Which yet my soul seeketh； but I find not： one man among a thousand have I found； but a woman among all those have I not found。
7：29我所找到的，只有一件，就是神造人原是正直，但他们寻出许多巧计。
Lo； this only have I found； that God hath made man upright； but they have sought out many inventions。
旧约 传道书（Ecclesiastes） 第 8 章 （ 本篇共有 12 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
8：1谁如智慧人呢。谁知道事情的解释呢。人的智慧使他的脸发光，并使他的脸上的暴气改变。
Who is as the wise man？ and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing？ a man's wisdom maketh his face to shine； and the boldness of his face shall be changed。
8：2我劝你遵守王的命令。既指神起誓，理当如此。
I counsel thee to keep the king's mandment； and that in regard of the oath of God。
8：3不要急躁离开王的面前。不要固执行恶。因为他凡事都随自己的心意而行。
Be not hasty to go out of his sight： stand not in an evil thing； for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him。
8：4王的话本有权力，谁敢问他说，你作什么呢。
Where the word of a king is； there is power： and who may say unto him； What doest thou？
8：5凡遵守命令的，必不经历祸患。智慧人的心，能辨明时候和定理。（原文作审判下节同）
Whoso keepeth the mandment shall feel no evil thing： and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment。
8：6各样事务成就，都有时候和定理。因为人的苦难，重压在他身上。
Because to every purpose there is time and judgment； therefore the misery of man is great upon him。
8：7他不知道将来的事，因为将来如何，谁能告诉他呢。
For he knoweth not that which shall be： for who can tell him when it shall be？
8：8无人有权力掌管生命，将生命留住。也无人有权力掌管死期。这场争战，无人能免，邪恶也不能救那好行邪恶的人。
There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit； neither hath he power in the day of death： and there is no discharge in that war； neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it。
8：9这一切我都见过。也专心查考日光之下所作的一切事。有时这人管辖那人，令人受害。
All this have I seen； and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun： there is a time wherein one man ruleth over another to his own hurt。
8：10我见恶人埋葬，归入坟墓。�
