Ecclesiastes 5
1 Put your feet down with care when you go to the house of God, for it is better to give ear than to make the burned offerings of the foolish, whose knowledge is only of doing evil.
Guard (foot your *Q(K)*) when you will go to [the] house of God and draw near to listen more than giving the fools a sacrifice for not they [are] knowing to do evil.
2 Be not unwise with your mouth, and let not your heart be quick to say anything before God, because God is in heaven and you are on the earth — so let not the number of your words be great.
May not you be hasty on mouth your and heart your may not it hasten to bring forth a matter before God for God [is] in the heavens and you [are] on the earth there-fore let them be words your few.
3 As a dream comes from much business, so the voice of a foolish man comes with words in great number.
For it comes the dream with abundance of business and [the] voice a fool with a multitude of words.
4 When you take an oath before God, put it quickly into effect, because he has no pleasure in the foolish; keep the oath you have taken.
When you will vow a vow to God may not you delay to pay it for there not [is] pleasure in fools [that] which you will vow pay.
5 It is better not to take an oath than to take an oath and not keep it.
[is] good That not you will vow (more than what you will vow *L(abh)*) and not you will pay.
6 Let not your mouth make your flesh do evil. And say not before the angel, It was an error. So that God may not be angry with your words and put an end to the work of your hands.
May not you permit mouth your to cause to sin flesh your and may not you say before the messenger that [was] inadvertence it why? will he be angry God towards voice your and he will destroy [the] work of hands your.
7 Because much talk comes from dreams and things of no purpose. But let the fear of God be in you.
For in abundance of dreams and futilities and words many for God fear.
8 If you see the poor under a cruel yoke, and law and right being violently overturned in a country, be not surprised, because one authority is keeping watch on another and there are higher than they.
If oppression of a poor person and robbery of justice and righteousness you will see in the province do not be astonished on the matter for a high [one] over a high [one] [is] watching and high [ones] over them.
9 It is good generally for a country where the land is worked to have a king.
And [the] profit of a land [is] in everything (it *Q(K)*) a king to a field he has been served.
10 He who has a love for silver never has enough silver, or he who has love for wealth, enough profit. This again is to no purpose.
[one who] loves Silver not he will be satisfied silver and whoever [is] loving wealth not income also this [is] futility.
11 When goods are increased, the number of those who take of them is increased; and what profit has the owner but to see them?
When increases the good they increase [those who] consume it and what? profit [belongs] to owner its that except ([the] sight of *Q(K)*) eyes his.
12 The sleep of a working man is sweet, if he has little food or much; but to him who is full, sleep will not come.
[is] sweet [the] sleep of The laborer whether a little and or [surely] much he will eat and the plenty of the rich [person] not it [is] permitting him to sleep.
13 There is a great evil which I have seen under the sun — wealth kept by the owner to be his downfall.
There [is] an evil severe [which] I have seen under the sun wealth [was] being kept by owner its to harm his.
14 And I saw the destruction of his wealth by an evil chance; and when he became the father of a son he had nothing in his hand.
And it was lost the wealth that in a business of evil and he fathered a son and not [was] in hand his anything.
15 As he came from his mother at birth, so does he go again; he gets from his work no reward which he may take away in his hand.
Just as he came out from [the] womb of mother his naked he will return to go when he came and anything not he will carry in toil his that he may take in hand his.
16 And this again is a great evil, that in all points as he came so will he go; and what profit has he in working for the wind?
And also this [is] an evil severe like exactly as [that] which came so he will go and what? [is the] profit [belongs] to him that he will toil for the wind.
17 All his days are in the dark, and he has much sorrow, pain, disease, and trouble.
Also all days his in darkness he eats and he is vexed greatly and sickness his and anger.
18 This is what I have seen: it is good and fair for a man to take meat and drink and to have joy in all his work under the sun, all the days of his life which God has given him; that is his reward.
Here! [that] which I have seen I [to be] good [that] which [is] beautiful [is] to eat and to drink and to see good in all toil his - that someone will toil under the sun [the] number of [the] days of (life his *Q(k)*) which he has given to him God for that [is] portion his.
19 Every man to whom God has given money and wealth and the power to have pleasure in it and to do his part and have joy in his work: this is given by God.
Also every person whom he has given to him God wealth and riches and he has given power him to eat from it and to receive portion his and to rejoice in toil his this [is] a gift of God it.
20 He will not give much thought to the days of his life; because God lets him be taken up with the joy of his heart.
For not [surely] much he will remember [the] days of life his for God [is] keeping busy with [the] joy of heart his.
