'Having' in the Bible

I explored with my mind how to gratify myself with wine while [at the same time] having my mind remain steady and guide me wisely; and how to take control of foolishness, until I could see what was good for the sons of men to do under heaven all the days of their lives.

There is nothing better for a man than taking meat and drink, and having delight in his work. This again I saw was from the hand of God.

Consider someone who is alone, having neither son nor brother. There is no end to all of his work, and he is never satisfied with wealth. "So for whom do I work," he asks, "and deprive myself of pleasure?" This, too, is pointless and a terrible tragedy.

And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came so doth he go away, and what profit hath he, in having laboured for the wind?

Wisdom given as strength to a wise person is better than having ten powerful men in the city.

Having heard everything, I have reached this conclusion: Fear God and keep his commandments, because this is the whole duty of man.
