Ecclesiastes 2:24 There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.
[x]MKJV: Is it not good that he should eat and drink and make his soul see good in his labor? This I also saw, that it [was] from the hand of God.
BBE: There is nothing better for a man than taking meat and drink, and having delight in his work. This again I saw was from the hand of God.
KAV: ¶ 사람이 먹고 마시는 것과 스스로 수고하는 중에 자기 혼으로 하여금 좋은 것을 즐기게 하는 것보다 더 좋은 것은 없도다. 내가 이것도 보니 그것이 [하나님]의 손에서 나왔도다.

This also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
[x]MKJV: For [God] gives wisdom, and knowledge, and joy to a man who [is] good in His sight. But to the sinner He gives labor, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to [him who is] good before God. This also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.
BBE: To the man with whom he is pleased, God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy; but to the sinner he gives the work of getting goods together and storing up wealth, to give to him in whom God has pleasure. This again is to no purpose and desire for wind.

BBE: I saw the work which God has put on the sons of man.
KAV: [하나님]께서 사람들의 아들들에게 해산의 고통을 주사 그 안에서 단련 받게 하신 것을 내가 보았노라.
TSK: I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.: ec 1:13,14, ec 2:26, ge 3:19, 1th 2:9, 2th 3:8Ecclesiastes 3:13 And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.
[x]MKJV: And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labor, it [is] the gift of God.
BBE: And for every man to take food and drink, and have joy in all his work, is a reward from God.
KAV: 또 모든 사람이 먹고 마시며 자기의 모든 수고로 인한 좋은 것을 누려야 하는 것이 [하나님]의 선물인 줄도 아노라.
TSK: And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.: ec 2:24, ec 5:18-20, ec 6:2, ec 9:7, de 28:30,31,47,48, jud 6:3-6, ps 128:2, isa 65:21-23Ecclesiastes 3:16 And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there.
[x]MKJV: And again I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness [was] there; and the place of righteousness, that wickedness [was] there.
BBE: And again, I saw under the sun, in the place of the judges, that evil was there; and in the place of righteousness, that evil was there.
KAV: ¶ 또 내가 해 아래에서 재판하는 곳을 보았는데 거기에도 그 사악함이 있고 의를 행하는 곳 거기에도 그 불법이 있도다.

[x]MKJV: I said in my heart concerning the matter of sons of men, that God might reveal them, and that they might see that they themselves [are] beasts.
BBE: I said in my heart, It is because of the sons of men, so that God may put them to the test and that they may see themselves as beasts.
KAV: 내가 내 마음속으로 사람들의 아들들의 상태에 대하여 이르기를, [하나님]께서 그들을 드러내시리니 이것은 자기들이 짐승임을 그들이 보게 하려 하심이라, 하였노라.
TSK: concerning: ge 3:17-19, job 14:1-4, job 15:16, ps 49:14,19,20, ps 73:18,19, ps 90:5-12, heb 9:27, 1pe 1:24; that God, etc: job 40:8, ps 51:4, ro 3:4, ro 9:23; and that: ps 73:22, 2pe 2:12Ecclesiastes 3:19 For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
[x]MKJV: For that which happens [to] the sons of men also happens to beasts even one thing [happens] to them. As this [one] dies, so that [one] dies; yea, they all [have] one breath; so that a man has no advantage over a beast; for all [is] vanity.
BBE: Because the fate of the sons of men and the fate of the beasts is the same. As is the death of one so is the death of the other, and all have one spirit. Man is not higher than the beasts; because all is to no purpose.
KAV: 사람들의 아들들에게 일어나는 일이 짐승들에게도 일어나나니 곧 한 가지 일이 그들에게 일어나느니라. 이것이 죽는 것 같이 저것도 죽나니 참으로 그들이 다 한 호흡을 가졌도다. 그러므로 사람이 짐승보다 뛰어날 것이 없나니 이는 모든 것이 헛된 것이기 때문이로다.

[x]MKJV: All go to one place; all are of the dust, and all return to dust again.
BBE: All go to one place, all are of the dust, and all will be turned to dust again.

[x]MKJV: Who knows the spirit of man [that] goes upward, and the spirit of the beast [that] goes downward?
BBE: Who is certain that the spirit of the sons of men goes up to heaven, or that the spirit of the beasts goes down to the earth?
KAV: 누가 위로 올라가는 사람의 영과 땅으로 내려가는 짐승의 영을 아느냐?

[x]MKJV: So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold the tears of the oppressed ones, and they had no comforter! And on the side of those who oppressed them there [was] power, but they had no comforter.
BBE: And again I saw all the cruel things which are done under the sun; there was the weeping of those who have evil done to them, and they had no comforter: and from the hands of the evil-doers there went out power, but they had no comforter.
KAV: 그러므로 내가 돌이켜 해 아래에서 이루어진 모든 학대를 깊이 살펴보았노니, 보라, 학대받는 자들의 눈물이라. 그들에게는 위로자가 없었도다. 그들을 학대하는 자들의 편에는 권세가 있었으나 그들에게는 위로자가 없었도다.

This is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
[x]MKJV: Again, I considered all labor, and every right work, that for this a man is envied by his neighbor. This [is] also vanity and vexation of spirit.
BBE: And I saw that the cause of all the work and of everything which is done well was man's envy of his neighbour. This again is to no purpose and a desire for wind.
KAV: ¶ 내가 모든 해산의 고통과 모든 옳은 일을 다시 깊이 살펴보니 이것으로 인하여 사람이 자기 이웃에게 시기를 받는도다. 이것도 헛되며 영을 괴롭게 하는 것이로다.

BBE: One hand full of rest is better than two hands full of trouble and desire for wind.
KAV: 한 손에 가득하고 평온한 것이 두 손에 가득하고 해산의 고통을 겪으며 영을 괴롭게 하는 것보다 더 나으니라.
TSK: Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit.: ps 37:16, pr 15:16,17, pr 16:8, pr 17:1Ecclesiastes 4:8 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.
[x]MKJV: There is one [alone], and [there is] not a second; yea, he has neither son nor brother; yet there is no end to all his labor; and his eyes are not satisfied with riches; and [he says, For whom do I labor and take good from my soul? This [is] also vanity. Yes, it [is] an evil business.
BBE: It is one who is by himself, without a second, and without son or brother; but there is no end to all his work, and he has never enough of wealth. For whom, then, am I working and keeping myself from pleasure? This again is to no purpose, and a bitter work.
KAV: 한 사람이 홀로 있고 대신할 자가 없으니 참으로 그에게는 자식도 없고 형제도 없도다. 그럼에도 그의 모든 수고에는 끝이 없으며 또 그의 눈은 재물로도 만족하지 아니하고 또 그가 이르기를, 내가 누구를 위해 수고하며 내 혼에게서 좋은 것을 빼앗는가? 하지도 아니하나니 이것도 헛되며 참으로 쓰라린 해산의 고통이로다.

BBE: Because out of a prison the young man comes to be king, though by birth he was only a poor man in the kingdom.

BBE: There was no end of all the people, of all those whose head he was, but they who come later will have no delight in him. This again is to no purpose and desire for wind.

[x]MKJV: Guard your steps when you go to the house of God, and be more ready to hear than to give the sacrifice of fools. For they do not know that they are doing evil.
BBE: Put your feet down with care when you go to the house of God, for it is better to give ear than to make the burned offerings of the foolish, whose knowledge is only of doing evil.

[x]MKJV: Do not allow your mouth to cause your flesh to sin; do not say before the angel that it [was] an error. Why should God be angry at your voice and destroy the work of your hands?
BBE: Let not your mouth make your flesh do evil. And say not before the angel, It was an error. So that God may not be angry with your words and put an end to the work of your hands.
