I applied my mind to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under the heavens. What a heavy burden God has laid on mankind!

I decided to study things carefully. I used my wisdom to check everything out. I looked into everything that is done on earth. What a heavy load God has put on human beings!

And I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom all that is done under heaven. It is an unhappy business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with.

I devoted myself to search for understanding and to explore by wisdom everything being done under heaven. I soon discovered that God has dealt a tragic existence to the human race.

I applied my mind to examine and explore through wisdom all that is done under heaven. God has given people this miserable task to keep them occupied.

我见神叫世人劳苦，使他们在其中受经练。

你必汗流满面才得糊口，直到你归了土，因为你是从土而出的。你本是尘土，仍要归于尘土。”

我又专心察明智慧、狂妄，和愚昧，乃知这也是捕风。

我专心求智慧，要看世上所做的事。（有昼夜不睡觉不合眼的。）我就看明神一切的作为，知道人查不出日光之下所做的事；任凭他费多少力寻查，都查不出来，就是智慧人虽想知道，也是查不出来。

我转念，一心要知道，要考察，要寻求智慧和万事的理由；又要知道邪恶为愚昧，愚昧为狂妄。

我又见人为一切的劳碌和各样灵巧的工作就被邻舍嫉妒。这也是虚空，也是捕风。

侧耳听智慧，专心求聪明，呼求明哲，扬声求聪明，寻找它，如寻找银子，搜求它，如搜求隐藏的珍宝，

神喜悦谁，就给谁智慧、知识，和喜乐；惟有罪人，神使他劳苦，叫他将所收聚的、所堆积的归给神所喜悦的人。这也是虚空，也是捕风。

聪明人的心得知识；智慧人的耳求知识。

耶和华的作为本为大；凡喜爱的都必考察。

我儿，要将你的心归我；你的眼目也要喜悦我的道路。

因为他日日忧虑，他的劳苦成为愁烦，连夜间心也不安。这也是虚空。

智慧为首；所以，要得智慧。在你一切所得之内必得聪明。

这一切我都见过，也专心查考日光之下所做的一切事。有时这人管辖那人，令人受害。

这些事你要殷勤去做，并要在此专心，使众人看出你的长进来。

我儿，还有一层，你当受劝戒：著书多，没有穷尽；读书多，身体疲倦。

与众寡合的，独自寻求心愿，并恼恨一切真智慧。
