There is a thing [of] which it is said, "Look at this! This is new!" [But] it already existed in ages past before us.

For what does a person receive for all his toil and in the longing of his heart with which he toils under the sun?

There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun: wealth {hoarded} by its owner to his harm.

Look! I have discovered what is good and fitting: to eat and to drink and {to enjoy} all [the fruit of] the toil with which one toils under the sun during the number of the days of his life that God gives to him--for this [is] his lot.

For who knows what [is] good for a man in his life during the few days of his fleeting life, which are fleeting as a shadow? For who can tell anyone what will happen {in the future} under the sun?

Enjoy life with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which he gives you under the sun, because this [is] your lot in life and in the toil with which you toil under the sun.
