Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.

The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.

An inheritance gotten wrongly at first, Even its latter end is not blessed.

A high look, and a proud heart, Even the lamp of the wicked, is sin.

He that shutteth his ear from the cry of the poor, even he, shall call, and not be answered.

Train up a child in the way he should go, And even when he is old he will not depart from it.

Drive out the scoffer, and contention will go out,
Even strife and dishonor will cease.

That thy trust may be in the LORD, I have made known to thee this day, even to thee.

If you have no money to pay,
even your bed will be taken from under you.

For he that delivereth them is mighty, even he shall defend their cause against thee.

Do not keep back training from the child: for even if you give him blows with the rod, it will not be death to him.

My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.

Even among those that be ever at the wine, and seek excess.

Wisdom is a high thing; yea, even to the fool, for he dare not open his mouth in the gate.

Even so shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul, as soon as thou hast gotten it. And there is good hope; yea, thy hope shall not be in vain.

Say not, "I will handle him, even as he hath dealt with me, and will reward every man according to his deeds."

Like as it is not good to eat too much honey; even so, he that will search out high things, it shall be too heavy for him.

Like as snow is not mete in summer, nor rain in harvest; even so is worship unseemly for a fool.

Answer not a fool according to his folly, Lest thou be like to him -- even thou.

Like as in a lame man his legs are not equal, even so is a parable in the fool's mouth.

He that setteth a fool in high dignity, that is even as if a man would bind a stone in a sling.

Like as the dog turneth again to his vomit, even so a fool beginneth his foolishness again afresh.

Like as the door turneth about upon the threshold, even so doth the slothful welter himself in his bed.

Like as one shooteth deadly arrows and darts out of a privy place, even so doth a dissembler with his neighbour.

Coals kindle heat, and wood the fire; even so doth a brawling fellow stir up variance.

The person who is full spurns honey, but to a hungry person even the bitter seems sweet.

Like as in one water there appear divers faces, even so divers men have divers hearts.

Like as hell and destruction are never full, even so the eyes of men can never be satisfied.

The heating-pot is for silver and the oven-fire for gold, and a man is measured by what he is praised for.

Even though you pound a [hardened, arrogant] fool [who rejects wisdom] in a mortar with a pestle like grain,
Yet his foolishness will not leave him.

The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, even the prophecy: the man spake unto Ithiel, even unto Ithiel and Ucal,

The night-spirit has two daughters, Give, give. There are three things which are never full, even four which never say, Enough:

There are three things, the wonder of which overcomes me, even four things outside my knowledge:

Three things are stately in their stride,
even four are stately in their walk:

give not over thy substance and mind unto women, which are the destruction even of kings.

There is, no remembrance, of the thing before, - nor, even of the things after, which shall be, will there be any remembrance, with them who shall come after.

And I give my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I have known that even this is vexation of spirit;

I said in my heart, 'Pray, come, I try thee with mirth, and look thou on gladness;' and lo, even it is vanity.

I sought out with my heart, to cherish with wine, my flesh, - but, my heart, was to guide with wisdom, even in laying hold of folly, until I should see which was blessedness for the sons of men, as to that which they could do, under the heavens, during the number of the days of their life.

I gathered silver and gold together, even a treasure of kings and lands. I provided me singers and women which could play of instruments, to make man mirth and pastime. I gat me drinking cups also and glasses.

And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the man do that cometh after the king? even that which hath been already done.

Then I saw that [even secular] wisdom [that brings sorrow] is better than [the pleasures of] folly and self-indulgence as light excels darkness.

Then said I in my heart, As it happeneth to the fool, so it happeneth even to me; and why was I then more wise? Then I said in my heart, that this also is vanity.

For of the wise man, even as of the fool, there is no remembrance for ever; seeing that in the days to come all will have been long forgotten. And how doth the wise man die even as the fool!

and who could know whether a, wise man, he would be or a foolish, and yet he would lord it over all my toil, wherein I had toiled and wherein I had acted wisely, under the sun, - even this, was vanity.

For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity, and to a man who hath not laboured therein he giveth it -- his portion! Even this is vanity and a great evil.

For all his days are but'sorrows, and his travail is grief; yea, even in the night his heart taketh no rest. This also is vanity.

There is nothing better for a man than to eat and drink and assure himself that there is good in his labor. Even this, I have seen, is from the hand of God.

For to a man who is good before Him, He hath given wisdom, and knowledge, and joy; and to a sinner He hath given travail, to gather and to heap up, to give to the good before God. Even this is vanity and vexation of spirit.

He hath made everything beautiful in its time: also he hath set eternity in their heart, yet so that man cannot find out the work that God hath done from the beginning even to the end.

yea, even every man who eateth and hath drunk and seen good by all his labour, it is a gift of God.

For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.

And I have seen all the labour, and all the benefit of the work, because for it a man is the envy of his neighbour. Even this is vanity and vexation of spirit.

There is one, and there is not a second; even son or brother he hath not, and there is no end to all his labour! His eye also is not satisfied with riches, and he saith not, 'For whom am I labouring and bereaving my soul of good?' This also is vanity, it is a sad travail.

For out of prison he came forth to be king; yea, even in his kingdom he was born poor.

There is no end of all the people, even of all that have been before them: they also that come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit.

Do not be surprised if you see the poor being oppressed with violence or [do not see] justice and righteousness in the province. For one official is watched by a higher official, and [there are] even higher officials over them!

The produce of the land is exploited by everyone; {even the king profits from the field [of the poor]}!

Whoso is loving silver is not satisfied with silver, nor he who is in love with stores with increase. Even this is vanity.

Just as he came naked from his mother's womb, he will leave as naked as he came; he will receive no profit from his efforts he cannot carry away even a handful.

Even this, moreover, is an incurable evil, altogether as he came, so, shall he depart, - what profit then shall he have who toileth for the wind?

Even all his days, are spent in darkness and mourning, - and he is very morose, and is sad and angry.

Even if a man fathers a hundred [children] and lives many years so that the days of his years are many, if his heart is not satisfied with {his prosperity} and {he does not receive a proper burial}, I deem the stillborn better than him.

Even the sun he hath not seen nor known, more rest hath this than that.

Even if the other man lives a thousand years twice over and yet has seen no good and experienced no enjoyment—do not both go to one place [the grave]?”

All the toil of man, is for his mouth, - though, even the desire, is not satisfied!

Better what the eyes behold, than the wandering of desire, - even this, was vanity, and a feeding on wind.

For as the noise of thorns under the pot, So is the laughter of a fool, even this is vanity.

For wisdom is a defence, even as money is a defence; but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom preserveth the life of him that hath it.

In the day of prosperity, be joyful, but, in the day of misfortune, consider, - Even the one equally with the other, hath God made, to the end man might find out - after him - nothing.

It is well that thou shouldst lay fast hold of this, but, even from the other, do not withdraw thy hand, - for, he that revereth God, shall come forth out of them all.

Also, do not pay attention to everything that people say; otherwise, you might even hear your servant cursing you.

For truly, many times, thy heart knoweth, - that, even thou thyself, hast reviled others.

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:

And I saw a thing more bitter than death, even the woman whose heart is full of tricks and nets, and whose hands are as bands. He with whom God is pleased will get free from her, but the sinner will be taken by her.

I pray thee, the commandment of a king keep, even for the sake of the oath of God.

Like as when a king giveth a charge, his commandment is mighty: Even so whom may say unto him, "What doest thou?"

For there is a [proper] time and right [procedure] for every matter, even though the trouble of man [weighs] heavy upon him.

And so I have seen the wicked buried, and they went in, even from the Holy Place they go, and they are forgotten in the city whether they had so done. This also is vanity.

Even though a sinner does what is wrong a hundred times and still survives, nevertheless I also know that things will go well for those who fear God, who fear in his presence.

Again, as for the ungodly, it shall not be well with him, neither shall he prolong his days: but even as a shadow, so shall he be that feareth not God.

Here was a vain thing which was done upon the earth - that there were righteous men unto whom it happened according to the work of the lawless, and there were lawless men, unto whom it happened according to the work of the righteous, - I said, that, even this, was vanity.

When I applied my mind to know wisdom and to observe the activity that is done on the earth (even though one’s eyes do not close in sleep day or night),

then I saw that all is the work of God, and that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because however man may labour to seek it out, yet doth he not find it; and even, if a wise man think to know it, he shall not be able to find it out.

For all this I considered in my heart even to declare all this, that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God: no man knoweth either love or hatred by all that is before them.

Whoever is joined to all the living has hope. After all, even a live dog is better than a dead lion!

For the living know that they will die, but the dead do not know anything. They no longer have a reward, and even the memory of them is forgotten.

See life with the wife whom thou hast loved, all the days of the life of thy vanity, that He hath given to thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity, for it is thy portion in life, even of thy labour that thou art labouring at under the sun.

I have turned so as to see under the sun, that not to the swift is the race, nor to the mighty the battle, nor even to the wise bread, nor even to the intelligent wealth, nor even to the skilful grace, for time and chance happen with them all.

For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare, even so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them.
