Ecclesiastes 2:21 For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that hath not laboured therein shall he leave it for his portion. This also is vanity and a great evil.
[x]MKJV: When there is a man whose labor is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and with success; yet to a man who has not labored in it, he shall leave it [for] his share. This also is vanity and a great evil.
BBE: Because there is a man whose work has been done with wisdom, with knowledge, and with an expert hand; but one who has done nothing for it will have it for his heritage. This again is to no purpose and a great evil.
KAV: 어떤 사람이 지혜와 지식과 공평으로 수고한다 해도 그런 것으로 수고하지 아니한 사람을 위해 그의 몫으로 그것을 남겨야 하나니 이것도 헛된 것이며 큰 악이로다.

[x]MKJV: For what has man from all his labor, and from the troubling of his heart, in which he has labored under the sun?
BBE: What does a man get for all his work, and for the weight of care with which he has done his work under the sun?
KAV: 사람이 해 아래에서 수고하며 행한 자신의 모든 수고와 자기 마음을 괴롭게 하는 것으로부터 무엇을 얻으리요?
TSK: hath man: ec 1:3, ec 3:9, ec 5:10,11,17, ec 6:7,8, ec 8:15, pr 16:26, 1ti 6:8; and of the: ec 4:6,8, ps 127:2, mt 6:11,25,34, mt 16:26, lu 12:22,29, php 4:6, 1pe 5:7Ecclesiastes 3:9 What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
[x]MKJV: What profit does he have who works in that in which he labors?
BBE: What profit has the worker in the work which he does?
KAV: 일하는 자가 자기가 수고하는 것에서 무슨 유익을 얻으리요?
TSK: What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?: ec 1:3, ec 2:11,22,23, ec 5:16, pr 14:23, mt 16:26Ecclesiastes 3:10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
[x]MKJV: I have seen the task which God has given to the sons of men to be humbled by it.
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 3:11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
[x]MKJV: He has made everything beautiful in His time; also He has set eternity in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God makes from the beginning to the end.
BBE: He has made everything right in its time; but he has made their hearts without knowledge, so that man is unable to see the works of God, from the first to the last.
KAV: 그분께서 자신의 때에 모든 것을 아름답게 만드셨고 또 그들의 마음속에 세상을 정하여 두셨으므로 아무도 [하나님]께서 만드시는 일을 처음부터 끝까지 알아 낼 수 없도다.

[x]MKJV: That which has been is now; and that which [is] to be has already been; and God requires that which is past.
BBE: Whatever is has been before, and what is to be is now; because God makes search for the things which are past.
KAV: 지금까지 있던 것이 지금 있으며 앞으로 있을 것도 이미 있었나니 [하나님]은 이미 지나간 것을 요구하시느니라.
TSK: which hath: ec 1:9,10Ecclesiastes 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.
TSK: that which: ec 2:16, ps 49:12,20, ps 92:6,7; as the: 2sa 14:14, job 14:10-12, ps 104:29; for: ec 2:20-23, ps 39:5,6, ps 89:47,48Ecclesiastes 4:3 Yea, better is he than both they, which hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.
[x]MKJV: Yea, better than both [is he] who has not yet been, who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.
BBE: Yes, happier than the dead or the living seemed he who has not ever been, who has not seen the evil which is done under the sun.
KAV: 참으로 아직 존재하지 않은 자 곧 해 아래에서 이루어진 악한 일을 보지 못한 자가 그들 둘보다 낫도다.
TSK: better: ec 6:3-5, job 3:10-16, job 10:18,19, jer 20:17,18, mt 24:19, lu 23:29; who: ec 1:14, ec 2:17, ps 55:6-11, jer 9:2,3Ecclesiastes 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.

[x]MKJV: For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him [who is] alone when he falls, for he does not have another to help him.
BBE: And if one has a fall, the other will give him a hand; but unhappy is the man who is by himself, because he has no helper.
KAV: 혹시 그들이 넘어지면 한 사람이 자기 동료를 일으켜 세우려니와 홀로 있는 자는 넘어질 때에 화가 있으리니 그를 도와서 일으킬 자가 그에게 없도다.

[x]MKJV: When you vow a vow to God, do not wait to pay it. For He has no pleasure in fools. Pay that which you have vowed.
BBE: When you take an oath before God, put it quickly into effect, because he has no pleasure in the foolish; keep the oath you have taken.
KAV: 네가 [하나님]께 서원하거든 그것을 갚는 일을 미루지 말라. 그분께서 어리석은 자들을 기뻐하지 아니하시나니 네가 서원한 것을 갚을지어다.

[x]MKJV: And this also [is] a sore evil, [that] in all, as he came, so shall he go; and what profit does he have who has labored for the wind?
BBE: And this again is a great evil, that in all points as he came so will he go; and what profit has he in working for the wind?

[x]MKJV: Also all his days he eats in darkness, and he has much sorrow and wrath [with] his sickness.
BBE: All his days are in the dark, and he has much sorrow, pain, disease, and trouble.
KAV: 또 그가 평생토록 어둠 속에서 먹으며 질병과 함께 많은 슬픔과 진노가 그에게 있느니라.

TSK: to whom: ec 2:24, ec 3:13, ec 6:2, de 8:18, 1ki 3:13; this is: ec 2:24-26Ecclesiastes 6:2 A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger ㆍ eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.
[x]MKJV: a man to whom God has given riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing for his soul of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to eat of it, but a stranger eats it. This [is] vanity, and it [is] an evil disease.
BBE: A man to whom God gives money, wealth, and honour so that he has all his desires but God does not give him the power to have joy of it, and a strange man takes it. This is to no purpose and an evil disease.
KAV: 어떤 사람은 [하나님]께서 부와 재물과 명예를 주셨으므로 자기 혼을 위해 자기가 바라는 모든 것에 부족함이 없으나 [하나님]께서 그것을 먹을 권능을 그에게 주지 아니하셨으므로 낯선 자가 그것을 먹나니 이것은 헛된 것이며 그것은 악한 병이로다.
