Ecclesiastes 3:17
English: And I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the ungodly: for there is a time there for every action and for every work.
Greek: εἶπα ἐγὼ ἐν καρδίᾳ µου Σὺν τὸν δίκαιον καὶ σὺν τὸν ἀσεβῆ κρινεῖ ὁ θεός, ὅτι καιρὸς τῷ παντὶ πράγµατι καὶ ἐπὶ παντὶ τῷ ποιήµατι.

Ecclesiastes 3:18
English: I said in my heart, concerning the speech of the sons of man, God will judge them, and that to shew that they are breasts.
Greek: ἐκεῖ εἶπα ἐγὼ ἐν καρδίᾳ µου περὶ λαλιᾶς υἱῶν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου, ὅτι διακρινεῖ αὐτοὺς ὁ θεός, καὶ τοῦ δεῖξαι ὅτι αὐτοὶ κτήνη εἰσὶν καί γε αὐτοῖς.

Ecclesiastes 3:19
English: Also to them is the event of the sons of man, and the event of the brute; one event befalls them: as is the death of the one, so also the death of the other; and there is one breath to all: and what has the man more than the brute? nothing; for all is vanity.
Greek: ὅτι συνάντηµα υἱῶν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου καὶ συνάντηµα τοῦ κτήνους, συνάντηµα ἓν αὐτοῖς· ὡς ὁ θάνατος τούτου, οὕτως ὁ θάνατος τούτου, καὶ πνεῦµα ἓν τοῖς πᾶσιν· καὶ τί ἐπερίσσευσεν ὁ ἄνθρωπος παρὰ τὸ κτῆνος; οὐδέν, ὅτι τὰ πάντα µαταιότης.

Ecclesiastes 3:21
English: And who has seen the spirit of the sons of man, whether it goes upward? and the spirit of the beast, whether it goes downward to the earth?
Greek: καὶ τίς οἶδεν πνεῦµα υἱῶν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου εἰ ἀναβαίνει αὐτὸ εἰς ἄνω, καὶ πνεῦµα τοῦ κτήνους εἰ καταβαίνει αὐτὸ κάτω εἰς γῆν;

Ecclesiastes 3:22
English: And I saw that there was no good, but that wherein a man shall rejoice in his works, for it is his portion, for who shall bring him to see any thing of that which shall be after him?
Greek: καὶ εἶδον ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἀγαθὸν εἰ µὴ ὃ εὐφρανθήσεται ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐν ποιήµασιν αὐτοῦ, ὅτι αὐτὸ µερὶς αὐτοῦ· ὅτι τίς ἄξει αὐτὸν τοῦ ἰδεῖν ἐν ᾧ ἐὰν γένηται µετ’ αὐτόν;

Ecclesiastes 4:1
English: So I returned, and saw all the oppressions that were done under the sun: and behold the tear of the oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of them that oppressed them was power; but they had no comforter:
Greek: Καὶ ἐπέστρεψα ἐγὼ καὶ εἶδον σὺν πάσας τὰς συκοφαντίας τὰς γινοµένας ὑπὸ τὸν ἥλιον· καὶ ἰδοὺ δάκρυον τῶν συκοφαντουµένων, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτοῖς παρακαλῶν, καὶ ἀπὸ χειρὸς συκοφαντούντων αὐτοὺς ἰσχύς, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτοῖς παρακαλῶν.

Ecclesiastes 4:3
English: Better also than both these is he who has not yet been, who has not seen all the evil work that is done under the sun.
Greek: καὶ ἀγαθὸς ὑπὲρ τοὺς δύο τούτους ὅστις οὔπω ἐγένετο, ὃς οὐκ εἶδεν σὺν τὸ ποίηµα τὸ πονηρὸν τὸ πεποιηµένον ὑπὸ τὸν ἥλιον.

Ecclesiastes 4:4
English: And I saw all labour, and all the diligent work, that this is a man’s envy from his neighbour. This is also vanity and waywardness of spirit.
Greek: Καὶ εἶδον ἐγὼ σὺν πάντα τὸν µόχθον καὶ σὺν πᾶσαν ἀνδρείαν τοῦ ποιήµατος, ὅτι αὐτὸ ζῆλος ἀνδρὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ ἑταίρου αὐτοῦ· καί γε τοῦτο µαταιότης καὶ προαίρεσις πνεύµατος.

Coptic: αυω αικτοι ανοκ αιναυ ευμντπετsουειτ hαροf μπρη
Ecclesiastes 4:8
English: There is one alone, and there is not a second; yea, he has neither son nor brother: yet there is no end to all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with wealth; and for whom do I labour, and deprive my soul of good? this is also vanity, and an evil trouble.
Greek: ἔστιν εἷς, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν δεύτερος, καί γε υἱὸς καὶ ἀδελφὸς οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτῷ· καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν περασµὸς τῷ παντὶ µόχθῳ αὐτοῦ, καί γε ὀφθαλµὸς αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐµπίπλαται πλούτου. καὶ τίνι ἐγὼ µοχθῶ καὶ στερίσκω τὴν ψυχήν µου ἀπὸ ἀγαθωσύνης; καί γε τοῦτο µαταιότης καὶ περισπασµὸς πονηρός ἐστιν.

Coptic: νανου πεσναυ εhουε επουα ναι ενανου πευβεκε ναυ hμ πευhισε
Ecclesiastes 4:10
English: For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falls, and there is not a second to lift him up.
Greek: ὅτι ἐὰν πέσωσιν, ὁ εἷς ἐγερεῖ τὸν µέτοχον αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐαὶ αὐτῷ τῷ ἑνί, ὅταν πέσῃ καὶ µὴ ᾖ δεύτερος τοῦ ἐγεῖραι αὐτόν.

Ecclesiastes 4:13
English: Better is a poor and wise child than an old and foolish king, who knows not how to take heed any longer.

Ecclesiastes 4:16
English: There is no end to all the people, to all who were before them: and the last shall not rejoice in him: for this also is vanity and waywardness of spirit.
Greek: οὐκ ἔστιν περασµὸς τῷ παντὶ λαῷ, τοῖς πᾶσιν, ὅσοι ἐγένοντο ἔµπροσθεν αὐτῶν· καί γε οἱ ἔσχατοι οὐκ εὐφρανθήσονται ἐν αὐτῷ· ὅτι καί γε τοῦτο µαταιότης καὶ προαίρεσις πνεύµατος.

Ecclesiastes 4:17
English: Keep thy foot, whensoever thou goest to the house of God; and when thou art near to hear, let thy sacrifice be better than the gift of fools: for they know not that they are doing evil.
Greek: Φύλαξον πόδα σου, ἐν ᾧ ἐὰν πορεύῃ εἰς οἶκον τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ ἐíὺς τοῦ ἀκούειν· ὑπὲρ δόµα τῶν ἀφρόνων θυσία σου, ὅτι οὔκ εἰσιν εἰδότες τοῦ ποιῆσαι κακόν.

Ecclesiastes 5:1
English: Be not hasty with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be swift to utter anything before God; for God is in heaven above, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few.
Greek: µὴ σπεῦδε ἐπὶ στόµατί σου, καὶ καρδία σου µὴ ταχυνάτω τοῦ ἐξενέγκαι λόγον πρὸ προσώπου τοῦ θεοῦ· ὅτι ὁ θεὸς ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ, καὶ σὺ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἐπὶ τούτῳ ἔστωσαν οἱ λόγοι σου ὀλίγοι.

Ecclesiastes 5:7
English: If thou shouldest see the oppression of the poor, and the wresting of judgment and of justice in the land, wonder not at the matter: for there is a high one to watch over him that is high, and high ones over them.
Greek: Ἐὰν συκοφαντίαν πένητος καὶ ἁρπαγὴν κρίµατος καὶ δικαιοσύνης ἴδῃς ἐν χώρᾳ, µὴ θαυµάσῃς ἐπὶ τῷ πράγµατι· ὅτι ὑψηλὸς ἐπάνω ὑψηλοῦ φυλάξαι καὶ ὑψηλοὶ ἐπ’ αὐτούς.

Ecclesiastes 5:9
English: He that loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver: and who has loved gain, in the abundance thereof? this is also vanity.

Coptic: ουν ουπονηρια εαιναυ εροσ hαροf μπρη αυω ναsωσ hαροf ντπε
Ecclesiastes 6:2
English: a man to whom God shall give wealth, and substance, and honour, and he wants nothing for his soul of all things that he shall desire, yet God shall not give him power to eat of it, for a stranger shall devour it: this is vanity, and an evil infirmity.
Greek: ἀνήρ, ᾧ δώσει αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς πλοῦτον καὶ ὑπάρχοντα καὶ δόξαν, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὑστερῶν τῇ ψυχῇ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ πάντων, ὧν ἐπιθυµήσει, καὶ οὐκ ἐξουσιάσει αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς τοῦ φαγεῖν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἀνὴρ ξένος φάγεται αὐτόν· τοῦτο µαταιότης καὶ ἀρρωστία πονηρά ἐστιν.

Ecclesiastes 6:3

Ecclesiastes 6:9

Ecclesiastes 7:1
English: What advantage has a man? for who knows what is good for a man in his life, during the number of the life of the days of his vanity? and he has spent them as a shadow; for who shall tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
Greek: ὅτι τίς οἶδεν τί ἀγαθὸν τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ ἀριθµὸν ἡµερῶν ζωῆς µαταιότητος αὐτοῦ; καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὰς ἐν σκιᾷ· ὅτι τίς ἀπαíελεῖ τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τί ἔσται ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ ὑπὸ τὸν ἥλιον;

Ecclesiastes 7:3
English: It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the banquet house: since this is the end of every man; and the living man will apply good warning to his heart.
Greek: ἀγαθὸν πορευθῆναι εἰς οἶκον πένθους ἢ ὅτι πορευθῆναι εἰς οἶκον πότου, καθότι τοῦτο τέλος παντὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου, καὶ ὁ ζῶν δώσει εἰς καρδίαν αὐτοῦ.
