then I beheld all the work of God, that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because however much a man labor to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yea moreover, though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it.

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。

我观看上帝一切的作为，知道人不能探求日光之下所发生的事；任凭他费多少力探索，都找不出来，智慧人虽说他明白，仍不能找出来。

我观看神一切的作为，知道人不能探求日光之下所发生的事；任凭他费多少力探索，都找不出来，智慧人虽说他明白，仍不能找出来。

思想上帝所做的一切，便知道人无法理解日光之下所发生的事。尽管人努力不懈地去寻找，也不能明白；即使智者自以为明白，他其实仍不能参透。

于是我看见了神的一切作为，知道在日光之下所发生的事，人不能查明；尽管人劳碌寻查，总是查不出来；即使智慧人以为知道了，还是查不出来。

我就看到神一切的作为：没有人能查找在日光之下所发生的事，即使人怎样劳苦地寻找，他也找不出来；即使智慧人说自己明白，他也不能找到。

我觀看上帝一切的作為，知道人不能探求日光之下所發生的事；任憑他費多少力探索，都找不出來，智慧人雖說他明白，仍不能找出來。

思想上帝所做的一切，便知道人無法理解日光之下所發生的事。儘管人努力不懈地去尋找，也不能明白；即使智者自以為明白，他其實仍不能參透。

於是我看見了神的一切作為，知道在日光之下所發生的事，人不能查明；儘管人勞碌尋查，總是查不出來；即使智慧人以為知道了，還是查不出來。

我就看明上帝一切的作為，知道日光之下所常發生的事、人總不能查出；任憑人怎樣勞碌去尋查，就使他晝夜眼都沒見過睡覺，也查不出；就使智慧人心裏說、快要知道了，他還是不能查出。

我就看到神一切的作為：沒有人能查找在日光之下所發生的事，即使人怎樣勞苦地尋找，他也找不出來；即使智慧人說自己明白，他也不能找到。

我見上帝之經綸、知人不能測日下所為之事、雖勞而求之、終不能得、智者雖欲知之、亦不能得也、

亦見有人、欲觀上帝之經綸、竭其心思、而不能得、有智之士、雖欲知之、亦不及知。

我觀天主之經綸、知人不能明日下所有之事、雖勞以求之、亦不能得、即智者曰、我可知之、終亦不能得、

then I saw all that God has done. No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all their efforts to search it out, no one can discover its meaning. Even if the wise claim they know, they cannot really comprehend it.

I saw everything God has done. No one can understand what happens on earth. People might try very hard to figure it out. But they still can’t discover what it all means. Wise people might claim they know. But they can’t really understand it either.

then I saw all the work of God, that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun. However much man may toil in seeking, he will not find it out. Even though a wise man claims to know, he cannot find it out.

I realized that no one can discover everything God is doing under the sun. Not even the wisest people discover everything, no matter what they claim.

I observed all the work of God and concluded that a person is unable to discover the work that is done under the sun. Even though a person labors hard to explore it, he cannot find it; even if a wise person claims to know it, he is unable to discover it.

and I saw every work of God, I concluded that one cannot discover the work which has been done under the sun. Even though a person laboriously seeks, he will not discover; and even if the wise person claims to know, he cannot discover.

then I saw all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun. For though a man labors to discover it, yet he will not find it; moreover, though a wise man attempts to know it, he will not be able to find it.

I observed all the work of God and concluded that man is unable to discover the work that is done under the sun. Even though a man labors hard to explore it, he cannot find it; even if the wise man claims to know it, he is unable to discover it.

Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek[ it] out, yet he shall not find[ it]; yea further; though a wise[ man] think to know[ it], yet shall he not be able to find[ it].

then I discerned all that God has done: No one really comprehends what happens on earth. Despite all human efforts to discover it, no one can ever grasp it. Even if a wise person claimed that he understood, he would not really comprehend it.

then I saw all the work of God, that man can’t find out the work that is done under the sun, because however much a man labors to seek it out, yet he won’t find it. Yes even though a wise man thinks he can comprehend it, he won’t be able to find it.

He hath made everything beautiful in its time: also he hath set eternity in their heart, yet so that man cannot find out the work that God hath done from the beginning even to the end.

When I thought how I might know this, It was too painful for me;

O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!

Who doeth great things and unsearchable, Marvellous things without number:

All this have I proved in wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me.That which is, is far off and exceeding deep; who can find it out?

Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard? The everlasting God, Jehovah, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary; there is no searching of his understanding.

As thou knowest not what is the way of the wind, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knowest not the work of God who doeth all.

And I have not learned wisdom, Neither have I the knowledge of the Holy One.Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son’s name, if thou knowest?

Many, O Jehovah my God, are the wonderful works which thou hast done, And thy thoughts which are to us- ward: They cannot be set in order unto thee; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered.

O Jehovah, how manifold are thy works! In wisdom hast thou made them all: The earth is full of thy riches.

Canst thou by searching find out God? Canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?It is high as heaven; what canst thou do? Deeper than Sheol; what canst thou know?The measure thereof is longer than the earth, And broader than the sea.
