Certainly every person walks around as a fleeting shadow; They certainly make an uproar for nothing; He amasses riches and does not know who will gather them.

世人行动实系幻影。他们忙乱，真是枉然；积蓄财宝，不知将来有谁收取。

世人行动实系幻影，他们忙乱，真是枉然，积蓄财宝，不知将来有谁收取。

人生不过是幻影，劳碌奔波却一场空，积蓄财富却不知谁来享用。

世人来来往往只是幻影，他们忙乱也是虚空；积聚财物，却不知道谁要来收取。

人们往来行走，只是幻像；他们喧闹，也是虚空；他们积蓄，却不知道谁会收取。

世人行動實係幻影。他們忙亂，真是枉然；積蓄財寶，不知將來有誰收取。

人走來走去、簡直是影兒；悲哀歎息不過是虛幻；他積聚着財寶，不知誰來收取。

人們往來行走，只是幻像；他們喧鬧，也是虛空；他們積聚，卻不知道誰會收取。

世人行動乃虛幻、擾攘乃徒勞、積蓄貨財、不知誰取兮、

各人所為、無非捉影、諠譟徒勞兮、積累財貨、不知孰得兮。

人生在世、猶如幻影、營謀皆是枉然、積蓄不知誰取、

人無百年好。花無百日香。

“ Surely everyone goes around like a mere phantom; in vain they rush about, heaping up wealth without knowing whose it will finally be.

People are only shadows as they go here and there. They rush around, but it doesn’t mean anything. They pile up wealth, but they don’t know who will finally get it.

Surely a man goes about as a shadow! Surely for nothing they are in turmoil; man heaps up wealth and does not know who will gather!

We are merely moving shadows, and all our busy rushing ends in nothing. We heap up wealth, not knowing who will spend it.

Yes, a person goes about like a mere shadow. Indeed, they rush around in vain, gathering possessions without knowing who will get them.

Surely every man walks about like a shadow; Surely they busy themselves in vain; He heaps up riches, And does not know who will gather them.

Surely every man walketh in a vain show; Surely they are disquieted in vain: He heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.

“ Certainly, man walks about like a mere shadow. Indeed, they frantically rush around in vain, gathering possessions without knowing who will get them.

Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up[ riches], and knoweth not who shall gather them.

Surely people go through life as mere ghosts. Surely they accumulate worthless wealth without knowing who will eventually haul it away.”

“ Surely every man walks like a shadow. Surely they busy themselves in vain. He heaps up, and doesn’t know who shall gather.

For to a person who is good in His sight, He has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, while to the sinner He has given the task of gathering and collecting so that he may give to one who is good in God’s sight. This too is futility and striving after wind.

Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. For you are just a vapor that appears for a little while, and then vanishes away.

and those who use the world, as though they did not make full use of it; for the present form of this world is passing away.

But God said to him,‘ You fool! This very night your soul is demanded of you; and as for all that you have prepared, who will own it now?’Such is the one who stores up treasure for himself, and is not rich in relation to God.”

When that wealth was lost through bad business and he had fathered a son, then there was nothing to support him.

having cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares about you.

The conclusion, when everything has been heard, is: fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person.

For there are many words which increase futility. What then is the advantage to a person?For who knows what is good for a person during his lifetime, during the few years of his futile life? He will spend them like a shadow. For who can tell a person what will happen after him under the sun?

“ Futility of futilities,” says the Preacher,“ all is futility!”

And do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, and do not keep worrying.

Why do you spend money for what is not bread, And your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And delight yourself in abundance.

Though he piles up silver like dust, And prepares garments as plentiful as the clay,He may prepare it, but the righteous will wear it And the innocent will divide the silver.

It is futile for you to rise up early, To stay up late, To eat the bread of painful labor; This is how He gives to His beloved sleep.

When you set your eyes on it, it is gone. For wealth certainly makes itself wings Like an eagle that flies toward the heavens.

For he sees that even wise people die; The foolish and the stupid alike perish And leave their wealth to others.Their inner thought is that their houses are forever And their dwelling places to all generations; They have named their lands after their own names.

I have seen all the works which have been done under the sun, and behold, all is futility and striving after wind.

I also amassed for myself silver and gold, and the treasure of kings and provinces. I provided for myself male and female singers, and the pleasures of the sons of mankind: many concubines.

For,“ All flesh is like grass, And all its glory is like the flower of grass. The grass withers, And the flower falls off,

Then I looked again at futility under the sun.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.

For riches are not forever, Nor does a crown endure to all generations.

A good person leaves an inheritance to his grandchildren, And the wealth of a sinner is stored up for the righteous.

So I hated life, for the work which had been done under the sun was unhappy to me; because everything is futility and striving after wind.So I hated all the fruit of my labor for which I had labored under the sun, because I must leave it to the man who will come after me.And who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will have control over all the fruit of my labor for which I have labored by acting wisely under the sun. This too is futility.Therefore I completely despaired over all the fruit of my labor for which I had labored under the sun.When there is a person who has labored with wisdom, knowledge, and skill, and then gives his legacy to one who has not labored for it; this too is futility and a great evil.

But Martha was distracted with all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said,“ Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do the serving by myself? Then tell her to help me.”But the Lord answered and said to her,“ Martha, Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things;but only one thing is necessary; for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.”

Your gold and your silver have corroded, and their corrosion will serve as a testimony against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have stored up your treasure!
