Again I saw something meaningless under the sun:

我又转念，见日光之下有一件虚空的事：

我转而观看日光之下有一件虚空的事：

我转而观看日光之下有一件虚空的事：

我又看见日光之下一件虚空的事：

我又看到日光之下有一件虚空的事。

我转眼又看到在日光之下还有一件虚空的事：

我又轉念，見日光之下有一件虛空的事：

我轉而觀看日光之下有一件虛空的事：

我轉而觀看日光之下有一件虛空的事：

我又看見日光之下一件虛空的事：

我又看到日光之下有一件虛空的事。

我又看日光之下有一件虛空的事：

我轉眼又看到在日光之下還有一件虛空的事：

我轉觀日下之虛空、

我遍觀天下、有一事更屬虛幻。

我又見日下更有一虛浮之事、

Again I saw something on earth that didn’t mean anything.

Again, I saw vanity under the sun:

I observed yet another example of something meaningless under the sun.

Again, I saw futility under the sun:

Then I looked again at futility under the sun.

Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun:

Then I returned and saw vanity under the sun.

Again, I saw futility under the sun:

Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun.

So I again considered another futile thing on earth:

Then I returned and saw vanity under the sun.

Again I looked and saw all the oppression that was taking place under the sun: I saw the tears of the oppressed— and they have no comforter; power was on the side of their oppressors— and they have no comforter.

So he ended their days in futility and their years in terror.

But did not my words and my decrees, which I commanded my servants the prophets, overtake your ancestors?“ Then they repented and said,‘ The Lord Almighty has done to us what our ways and practices deserve, just as he determined to do.’”
