传道书 1
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
1 以下是傳道者，就是在耶路撒冷作王、大衛的兒子所說的話。
萬事令人厭倦都是虛空
2 傳道者說：虛空的虛空。
虛空的虛空，一切都是虛空。
3 人的一切勞碌，就是他在日光之下的勞碌，
對自己有甚麼益處呢？
4 一代過去，一代又來，
地卻永遠存在。
5 太陽升起，太陽落下，
匆忙回到它上升之處。
6 風向南颳，又往北轉，
循環周行，旋轉不息。
7 江河向海裡流，海卻不滿溢；
江河之水歸回本源，循環流轉。
8 萬事都令人厭倦，
人說，說不盡；
眼看，看不飽；
耳聽，聽不足。
9 已有的事必再有，
作過的事必再作；
日光之下並無新事。
10 有甚麼事人可以說：
“看啊！這是新的”？
其實，很久之前已經有了，
在我們之前早就有了。
11 以前的事，無人記念；
將來的事，後來的人也不追憶。
智慧知識都是虛空
12 那時，我傳道者在耶路撒冷作以色列的王。 13 我曾用智慧專心尋求查究天下所發生的一切事；原來 神給予世人的，是勞苦的擔子，叫他們為此煩惱。 14 我看過日光之下所發生的一切事，不料，一切都是虛空，都是捕風。 15 彎曲的，不能弄直；缺少的，不能數算。 16 我自己心裡說：“我得了極大的智慧，勝過所有在我以前統治耶路撒冷的人；我見識了許多智慧與知識。” 17 我又專心究察智慧和知識，狂妄和愚昧，才知道這也是捕風。 18 因為多有智慧，就多有煩惱；加增知識，就加增痛苦。
Ecclesiastes 1
King James Version
Ecclesiastes 1
King James Version
1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.
2 Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.
3 What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?
4 One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.
5 The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose.
6 The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits.
7 All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.
8 All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.
9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.
11 There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.
12 I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
13 And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith.
14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit.
15 That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered.
16 I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.
17 And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit.
18 For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.
Ecclesiastes 1
New International Version
Ecclesiastes 1
New International Version
Everything Is Meaningless
1 The words of the Teacher,[a](A) son of David, king in Jerusalem:(B)
2 “Meaningless! Meaningless!”
says the Teacher.
“Utterly meaningless!
Everything is meaningless.”(C)
3 What do people gain from all their labors
at which they toil under the sun?(D)
4 Generations come and generations go,
but the earth remains forever.(E)
5 The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises.(F)
6 The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course.
7 All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again.(G)
8 All things are wearisome,
more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing,(H)
nor the ear its fill of hearing.
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;(I)
there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there anything of which one can say,
“Look! This is something new”?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time.
11 No one remembers the former generations,(J)
and even those yet to come
will not be remembered
by those who follow them.(K)
Wisdom Is Meaningless
12 I, the Teacher,(L) was king over Israel in Jerusalem.(M) 13 I applied my mind to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under the heavens.(N) What a heavy burden God has laid on mankind!(O) 14 I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.(P)
15 What is crooked cannot be straightened;(Q)
what is lacking cannot be counted.
16 I said to myself, “Look, I have increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me;(R) I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge.” 17 Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom,(S) and also of madness and folly,(T) but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind.
