有一個人孤孤單單，沒有兒子也沒有兄弟，卻終身勞碌。他雖然家道豐裕，仍不滿足，從未想過「我不停地勞碌，放棄一切享受，究竟是為了誰？」這也是虛空，是一種悲哀。

There was a man all alone; he had neither son nor brother. There was no end to his toil, yet his eyes were not content with his wealth.“ For whom am I toiling,” he asked,“ and why am I depriving myself of enjoyment?” This too is meaningless— a miserable business!

A man lived all by himself. He didn’t have any sons or brothers. His hard work never ended. But he wasn’t happy with what he had.“ Who am I working so hard for?” he asked.“ Why don’t I get the things I enjoy?” That doesn’t have any meaning either. In fact, it’s a very bad deal!

one person who has no other, either son or brother, yet there is no end to all his toil, and his eyes are never satisfied with riches, so that he never asks,“ For whom am I toiling and depriving myself of pleasure?” This also is vanity and an unhappy business.

This is the case of a man who is all alone, without a child or a brother, yet who works hard to gain as much wealth as he can. But then he asks himself,“ Who am I working for? Why am I giving up so much pleasure now?” It is all so meaningless and depressing.

There is a person without a companion, without even a son or brother, and though there is no end to all his struggles, his eyes are still not content with riches.“ Who am I struggling for,” he asks,“ and depriving myself of good things?” This too is futile and a miserable task.

There was a man without a dependent, having neither a son nor a brother, yet there was no end to all his labor. Indeed, his eyes were not satisfied with riches, and he never asked,“ And for whom do I labor and deprive myself of pleasure?” This too is futility, and it is an unhappy task.

There is one alone, without companion: He has neither son nor brother. Yet there is no end to all his labors, Nor is his eye satisfied with riches. But he never asks,“ For whom do I toil and deprive myself of good?” This also is vanity and a grave misfortune.

There is one that is alone, and he hath not a second; yea, he hath neither son nor brother; yet is there no end of all his labor, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches. For whom then, saith he, do I labor, and deprive my soul of good? This also is vanity, yea, it is a sore travail.

There is one[ alone], and[ there is] not a second; yea, he hath neither child nor brother: yet[ is there] no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither[ saith he], For whom do I labour, and bereave my soul of good? This[ is] also vanity, yea, it[ is] a sore travail.

陰間和死亡填不滿，人的眼目永不滿足。

凡屬世界的，如肉體的私慾、眼目的私慾和今生的驕傲都不是從天父那裡來的，而是從世界來的。

萬事令人厭煩，人述說不盡。眼看，看不飽；耳聽，聽不夠。

我專心用智慧去研究、探索天下各樣的事，發現上帝給世人的是極重的苦工。

但上帝對他說，『無知的人啊！今晚就要取走你的命！你所預備的一切留給誰享用呢？』」

兩個人總比一個人好，因為二人勞碌同得美好的成果。一人跌倒，總有同伴相扶。但孤身一人、跌倒了無人相扶的真悲慘！還有，二人同睡會暖和，一人獨睡怎能暖和呢？遭遇攻擊，一人獨自不能抵擋，二人並肩就能對付。三股擰成的繩子不容易斷。

那些不斷建房置田、佔光土地、獨居其中的人有禍了！

人生不過是幻影，勞碌奔波卻一場空，積蓄財富卻不知誰來享用。

貪愛錢財的，金銀不能使他滿足；貪圖富裕的，再多的利益也不能叫他稱心。這也是虛空！

耶和華上帝說：「那人獨自一人不好，我要為他造一個相配的幫手。」

你們為什麼花錢買不能充饑的食物？為什麼拿辛苦賺來的錢買不能令人飽足的東西？要留心聽我的話，就可以吃美物，享受豐盛的佳餚。

亞伯蘭說：「主耶和華啊，你要賜我什麼呢？我沒有兒子，繼承我家業的人是大馬士革人以利以謝。」亞伯蘭又說：「你沒有賜我兒子，我家中的僕人將繼承我的產業。」

他們一生充滿痛苦，勞碌中盡是愁煩，即使夜間心裡也不安寧。這也是虛空。

「所有勞苦困乏、背負重擔的人啊，到我這裡來吧！我要賜給你們安息。

他們無人思想，無人明白，無人醒悟說：「我用一半木頭當柴烤餅、烤肉吃，我豈能用另一半木頭造可憎的神像？我豈能向一塊木頭叩拜？」他們以灰為食，心智迷糊，走入歧途，不能自救，也不會說：「我右手拿的神像不是假的嗎？」

皈依耶和華的外族人啊，不要以為耶和華會把你和祂的子民分開，太監也不要覺得自己只是一棵枯樹。因為耶和華說：「如果太監遵守我的安息日、做我喜悅的事、持守我的約，我必在我的殿中、牆內賜給他們紀念碑和名號，使他們勝過有兒女的人。我必賜給他們永遠不會被除去的名號。

財富會欺騙人，使驕傲之人永不安分，像陰間一樣貪得無厭，如死亡一般永不滿足。因此，他們征服列國，擄掠萬民。「但那些被擄的人必用詩歌和俗語嘲諷他們，說，『你們有禍了！你們吞沒別人的財產，靠剝削別人囤積財富，要到何時呢？』向你們借債的人必突然攻擊你們，使你們戰戰兢兢，成為俘虜。你們從前擄掠許多國家，殺人流血，摧毀他們的土地、城市和人民，所以各國的餘民必掠奪你們。「為自己的家積蓄不義之財、在高處搭窩躲避災禍的人啊，你們有禍了！
