9 What profit hath he that worketh from that wherein he laboureth?

What? [is] [the] profit of the worker in [that] which he [is] a laborer.

10 I have seen the travail that God hath given to the sons of men to toil in.

I have seen the task which he has given God to [the] children of humankind to be busy with it.

11 He hath made everything beautiful in its time; also he hath set the world in their heart, so that man findeth not out from the beginning to the end the work that God doeth.

Everything he has made beautiful in time its also perpetuity he has put in heart their because not which not he will find humankind the work which he has done God from beginning and to end.

12 I know that there is nothing good for them but to rejoice and to do well in their life;

I know that there not [is] good for them that except to rejoice and to do good in life his.

13 yea also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy good in all his labour, it is the gift of God.

And also every person that he will eat and he will drink and he will see good in all toil his [is] a gift of God it.

14 I know that whatever God doeth, it shall be for ever; there is nothing to be added to it, nor anything to be taken from it; and God doeth [it], that [men] should fear before him.

I know that all that he does God it it will be for ever to it not to add and from it not to take away and God he has acted that people will fear from to before him.

15 That which is was long ago, and that which is to be hath already been; and God bringeth back again that which is past.

Whatever that is [has been] already it and [that] which [is] to be already it has been and God he will seek [what] was pursued.

16 And moreover I saw under the sun, that in the place of judgment, wickedness was there; and in the place of righteousness, wickedness was there.

And again I have seen under the sun [the] place of justice [was] there wickedness and [the] place of righteousness [was] there wickedness.

17 I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.

I said I in heart my the righteous and the wicked he will judge God for a time [is] for every matter and on every deed there.

18 I said in my heart, It is thus with the children of men, that God may prove them, and that they should see that they themselves are but beasts.

I said I in heart my on cause of [the] children of humankind to test them God and to see that they [are] animal[s] they for themselves.

19 For what befalleth the children of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other, and they have all one breath; and man hath no pre-eminence above the beast: for all is vanity.

For [the] fate of [the] children of humankind and [the] fate of animal[s] and fate one [belongs] to them like [the] death of this so [the] death of this and breath one [belongs] to all and [the] advantage of humankind [is] more than the animal[s] not for everything [is] futility.

20 All go unto one place: all are of the dust, and all return to dust.

Everything [is] going to place one everything it was from the dust and everything [is] returning to the dust.

21 Who knoweth the spirit of the children of men? Doth it go upwards? and the spirit of the beasts, doth it go downwards to the earth?

Who? [is] knowing [the] spirit of [the] children of humankind that is going up it upwards and [the] spirit of the animal[s] that is going down it downwards to the earth.

22 And I have seen that there is nothing better than that man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion; for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?

And I saw that there not [is] good more than that he will be happy humankind in work his for that [is] portion his for who? will he bring him to look on whatever that will be after him.
